That's beautiful.
I need to find my Fitz trigger guard for my Redhawk. I never got around to getting a new hammer

Yea, it doesn’t quite lock right on that cylinder and will throw you off a little when you are just trying to work smooth straight through presses.
This gun has had a ton of rounds shot through it, including very high velocity stuff. At this point it is just going to be preserved as a historical investment piece.
Just a Hairy Special Snowflake supply clerk with no field experience, shooting an Asymetric carbine as a Try Hard. Snarky and easily butt hurt. Favorite animal is the Cape Buffalo....likely indicative of a personality disorder.

Fascinating, thanks for sharing!
A Fitz Special something showed up at a local gun show a couple years ago, it looked like it had been black cerakoted, and the only marking on it was a Broad Arrow, which was intriguing...

Interesting. I was asking because I have a Security Six that seems to be off a little on one chamber. I’m not sure if I want to get it fixed or sell it at full disclosure to fund an SP-101.
In any case, thank you for sharing this with us. That revolver just looks fun, and with its history, is all the more awesome.

Beware of my temper, and the dog that I've found...
No question that is a piece of revolver history, and a rare one at that. Kudos to the OP!
But...I have a question since there seems to be a lot of enthusiasm for the cut-off trigger guard of the Fitz guns. I've been shooting DA revolvers since I went to the police academy in the summer of '73. I have large hands but I've never once caught my index/trigger finger on the front bow of the trigger guard. Someone please explain the utility of this rather radical alteration to DA revolvers?
