Dugaboy 1,

I am currently in the US but I remember having an old issue of (I'm not sure whether it was Guns and Ammo or Gun Digest) with pictures of a modern take on the Howdah pistol by US gunmaker Lee Jurras on the Thomson Center Contender frame. Not quite the 577s of the British era, but interesting single barreled big bore handguns, I think.

I wonder if anyone has any access to the old issues - maybe Nickudu at AR? I'll try and scan and mail them to someone who may be able to post the pictures when I go to India in a couple of months.

Good hunting!
