I've got a postwar Heavy Duty that's a real pleasure to shoot. One of my projects is a 2nd Model Hand Ejector .44 Special (Wolf and Klar) from about 1927 that I got cheap because some kitchetable gunsmith had done a "trigger job" on it, causing the cylinder stop drag on the cylinder nearly constantly. It had also been reblued at one of the south of the border places that seemed to lurk just over the river in the 50's. I've corrected the internals, and am debating either a period proper matte re-blue, or a nickel finish, plus either a pair of Keith Brown's Roper grips, or having Don Collins make some ivory magnas.
I've seen some of Bowen's work, you can't go wrong with him. I am more partial to .44 special than .45 Colt though, probably due to many too many evening sipping scotch and reading Elmer Keith. Ditto on the Tio Myers holsters, top notch, but I have trouble waiting. Here's a custom maker that you might want to check out. I've heard good things about him. http://www.saguarogunleather.com/
