Heathaways plainsman 175 conversion

[Septicdeath]

So I'm all done with my plainsman 175 to Shorty 9404 conversion, all back together and tested. It works great. Didn't get to chronograph it or test for accuracy, will in the next few days.

The Shorty is .22 and used special steal coated lead balls ammo, left my conversation bb much simpler to find bb's

I am still looking for a 9404 but this will work until I find one

Professor,

Very nicely done! Pistol looks exactly like a Shorty. I knew you had gunsmithing skills, but didn't know you were that good! I can absolutely see why 9404 Shorty originals are hard to come by, what a cool looking pistol, who would ever part with one? Quality of video picture seems improved, sound, too. New equipment? Looking forward to future updates on this project. Thanks for all you do,

WM

Well done. I don’t know about you, but I think the trigger pull being kind of long is still not bad at all and brakes cleanly.
