Gun retention is a vital concern for hand gunners in risky environments. Lanyards and lanyard rings are still the best way to keep control of your sidearm when on horseback, around water or in hostile circumstances. While many regard lanyards and lanyard rings as old fashion, Bowen Classic Arms believes they are as important as ever and produce several lanyards and lanyard ring studs which, with appropriate modifications, will fit virtually and revolver. Hand assembled, the rings are silver soldered for maximum strength and appearance. All are stainless steel with the exception of the blued universal style. Installation instructions are included.
Gunsmiths will find out universal lanyard rings perfect for custom installations. The stud features a hefty shaft for chucking in a lathe or mill vise so that the stems can be threaded for nuts, groove for retaining clips or drilled for pins. These can be adapted to virtually any revolver with space on the butt of the grip frame. Available in both stainless and blued steels. For owners of revolvers fitted with the popular Hogue rubber monogrips, Bowen Classic Arms has designed a lanyard ring to replace the Hogue grip screw and will afford owners of most popular revolvers a simple, sturdy installation. Our universal-style lanyard rings can be modified by your gunsmith to work the same way with Hogue wood monogrips.
Lanyard rings without lanyards are useless. We are pleased to offer a high-quality reproduction British military-style lanyard with an adjustable slider. These are designed to be used looped around the neck and under one arm, usually on the holster side. Woven sheath over a cord core for strength, these are a handsome dark khaki color and are available with or without a clip. Both are longer enough for the tallest shooters to use with a revolver held at arms length in classic field shooting position though the lanyard with the clip is somewhat longer.
