Looks good! I really would like to get an agent some day. If it were me I think I would change back to the skinny Colt style furniture because I like the looks of them. The Jim Badger's really help control +P recoil. +P and agents should be a rare combo. OP Nice job! Agents look best when dressed for business

update
Back from the range and the Agent's first shoot. This little booger shoots GREAT! It's bumped the Detective Special out of first place, and will now be my carry gun. Fantastic trigger, good balance, accurate, and even though it's lighter, it's very easy to control for followup shots. re: DuraCoat project Notice how the heat and powder flame has kind of scalloped the cylinders. Not sure if I didn't apply thickly enough or if it hasn't fully hardened in the last week or so. Just thought I'd give everyone a head's up about this issue. Actually, I kind'a LIKE IT...reminds me of a '50's hotrod flame job. Also, I should have loaded empty brass into the cylinder before I sprayed it. Had to use emery paper to clean up the cylinder bores so empty brass ejects smoothly. No big deal, but something to remember if you're planning on doing a DuraCoat job.

36 were enough to torque a steel, +P-rated DS of mine. Typical results? Not likely, but it's enough for me ensure they'd never leave the barrel unless the target's made of meat and trying to kill me. Dang, man, that ain't right. I've shot several hundred +P Gold Dots thru the trusty DS with no problems.

Dang, man, that ain't right. I've shot several hundred +P Gold Dots thru the trusty DS with no problems. Yeah, results may not be typical but they set up some hard & fast rules about what I do with D frame revolvers. That aside, you've made yourself up a very nice wheelgun, there. |
