I'm glad I didn't know before it ended. I hate camo crap when there's no need but I do love .357.....

Yeah a bit much for the rifle in my opinion.

not sure what the scope was, but the mounts sure looked low as far as the hammer spur was positioned

I wondered if that hammer spur extension would cause light hammer strikes.

I cannot say enough about my Braztech Rossi Single Shot chambered in 44 Mag. I noticed that they have just about dried up this year. Very tough to find. I want to say that this is only the third one that I've seen for sale this year.

Same said for my 308 Win, just like the 44 Mag since I got it back from CS.

One thing that bothered me about the 357 Mag is that it is an Amedeo rifle rather than a Braztech. I haven't had any issues with light hammer strikes with the Braztech products, only the Amedeo.

As a whole the Single Shots are really drying up; both rifles & shotguns. On Gunbroker that used to be pages of both and now it is down to one page each.

They're too easy (for some) to wildcat and they're cheap (usually). I guess that's why they're drying up, even the shotguns. I've noticed too. At shows, the price has gone up more than usual inflation. I kinda want one, not sure what caliber or why.
