General Information on .500 Bushwhacker BFR Conversions
A standard .500 Bushwhacker BFR revolver includes:
1. A .500 Bushwhacker and/or .500 Bushwhacker Magnum cylinder as well as a .500 S&W Magnum cylinder.
2. A six port, 1.5-inch diameter titanium muzzle brake of our design, which is pinned and welded and reduces recoil to a manageable level. This device, or one of the muzzle brakes we installed on previous .500 Bushwhackers (the Ti Pro 5, T4+ Terminator, or T5 Terminator) is necessary for shooter safety and cannot be removed without subjecting the shooter to a dangerous, unmitigated recoil impulse that is beyond what the human body can safely endure.
3. The addition of a new rear sight and rear sight base to allow for proper sighting with the muzzle brake.
4. Various minor adjustments to the firearm, including relettering, the installation of new screws, and so on.
For a total of $2,199 plus the cost of the revolver and shipping.
7.5-inch and 10-inch barrels are standard. If a barrel longer than 10-inches is desired, expect an additional fee of $599. If a 6.5-inch barrel is desired, expect a fee of $100.
For all applications involving heavy recoil, we prefer the MRI plow handle grip frame (especially with the old-style Pachmayr grips) to the factory Bisley grip frame. Note that the white polymer factory Bisley grip frame panels can crack from the recoil impulse of the larger chamberings.
Shipment Policy
Due to current carrier policies, if you wish to send a firearm to us for customization or maintenance, it may only be shipped to us through an authorized FFL dealer and we must return it to you through an authorized FFL dealer. All shipments are made 'signature required.' It is best to use a business-hours address where someone will be able to take delivery without special scheduling or arrangements. When shipping, please follow these steps: 1. Remove rails, scopes, and other accessories not necessary to the work. Please make sure the gun is reasonably clean. 2. Package your firearms securely and insure them. See to it that they are unloaded. 3. For additional security when shipping, request a ‘delivery confirmation/signature required’ service. If you wish to verify arrival of your gun at our shop, please retain your package tracking number and contact your carrier. 4. Expect higher prices when shipping from and to Alaska and Hawaii.
Ammunition Discount
If you return the fired cases from our ammunition in good working order, we will discount the cost of the brass from any further ammunition loaded from the cases (the discount varies by caliber, and is specified in the respective product descriptions). While ammunition cannot be shipped by the Postal Service, inert brass cases can be. This is typically the most cost-effective way of returning fired cases. If you are interested in this option, contact us and we'll assist you with the process.
Special Requests and/or Standard Gunsmithing Services
Our services are not limited to this list, which we intend to expand with time. If you have a special request, there is a good chance we can assist you or refer you to someone better equipped to do so. In these cases, contact us for feasibility and a quote.
Custom Bullets
A wide variety of cast bullets are available on our sister site, Bengal Bullets.
