To you that remember Ron, He passed this past Friday. Ron owned Grand Masters / Power Customs. He was known for his custom S&Ws and Rugers. Featured in several magazines over the years. He was 85 at the time of his death.

How sad. I had one of his barrels/ sight rails mounted on a S&W 586. It was a heck of a shooter. May he rest in peace.

He did the action work and the Aimpoint mk3 rail mounting for me back in 1983 on my Redhawk .44
that was a real shooter.

Ron Powers truly a legend. Could work more magic on a Smith revolver in minutes then most 'smith could in hours. May he rest in peace.

First we lose Ed Brown, now Ron Powers.

Ron has done I believe Four Power Custom Combat Revolvers for me over the last 30 some years.
The First was a 625, followed by a 610, then a GP100, and the last a 686. The last two were not marked as he had ran out of the things he used to mark them. He still worked on some old customer guns after he retired.
