GP-44 CONVERSIONS
please read as this is very important information.
Because our GP44 conversions utilize a variety of factory and custom barrels, it is simpler to contemplate the receiver and barrel modifications separately. The basic GP44 conversion will include these modifications, whether fitted with a 6-shot factory cylinder or a custom 5-shot part:
· receiver modifications, including removing the original barrel,
shortening the receiver nose, re-contouring the top strap and de-lettering
· barrel installation, not including the barrel, related barrel
and sight work or sight regulation
· trigger/action tune
· extra-length firing pin
· Rough Country rear sight and matching front sight blade
appropriate to the base or barrel style
Providing a barrel completes the work. We usually have a fair stock of basic factory barrels available. Since there are a variety of barrel modifications and options available, it is best to consult with us for a quotation. Costs are typically as follows:
· provide factory standard Redhawk barrel; from $150.00 depending on
type and caliber. Supply varies.
· shorten factory barrel and provide/install DX base … $365.00
· provide/install DX base on a 4-in. factory barrel (includes recrowning and remarking the factory barrel and filling the original pin holes) … $310.00
· for .45 Colt and .454 caliber GP conversions 2-3/4(finished at close to 3-in.) and 4-1/4 in. Anaconda barrels, add $1,045.00.
Please note: We cannot provide rebores for already ported barrels due to risks of damage to both barrel and rebore tooling.· custom barrel installations include .44 and .45 8 in. Colt Anaconda barrels (very scarce and rarely available), and our own L-frame and SP-style parts … Inquire.
Please note: Other Redhawk options are available for the GP44 conversions, including black powder cylinder chamfers, lanyard rings, matte finishing, etc. Please see the ‘Options’ section.
