PS,take all the internals out of the frame,fill the barrel with waxy grease,and "tomato patch" the frame and barrel with a little muriatic acid.Do the same to the cylinder after taking out the nipples,and then rub the steel with a little 0000 steel wool soaked in oil.Suddenly,you then have a belly gun that shoots AND looks like it's "been there and done that".

I think I can buy one for a 5.5 barrel. If so, do I just shorten the latch end of the lever?
What do you mean by; ""tomato patch" the frame and barrel with a little muriatic acid."?
