Has anyone ever had Bob Munden do any custom work? I was thinking about having his Option #1 and adding the Free Wheel Cylinder work done.I'll be doing this to my Vaquero "Sheriff " model.

Lets you rotate the cylinder left or right with your fingers with no stop when loading or unloading a Single Action.

Dave, I've had Bob do an action job for me & I can tell you it's a very good job. It feels very smooth & is well timed, it's almost effortless to cock. His work almost has to be felt to be believed, he is a great person to work with too.

As mentioned, free wheeling allows the cylinder to be rotated either diretion. 

This can come in handy if you have a bullet jump crimp and the bullet protrudes past the face of the cylinder.  The exposed bullet will most likely prevent the cylinder from rotating clockwise.  With the free wheel ability, you just rotate the cylinder counter clockwise till the problem bullet lines up with the loading gate and Wha-la..............eject it and go about your business.
