Nice outcome Bill. I had a similar project piece long gone now based on a very rough $100 Brazilian. And similarly, the smith had a shop accident and gouged the cut bbl stub. He did a porting on the bbl to cover the blunder. Manufactured a ramp sight for the bbl and reblued her. Made a nice truck piece.

Again, congrats.

PS. It begs for a custom Tom Threepersons.
