CS moved to Mayodan. Since then I believe any FUBAR reported. Try acall to marketing? talk with someone who'll send you a box 'o hats as free advertising swag. Marketing has pallets of that stuff.

LGS had one for $595 last fall. Glossy perfect finish and wood. Smooth function and classic S&W quality. I took it home for less. I understand the concept, but not the purpose per se. Logic gets in the way. I only used gold dot but it gave spotty accuracy. A blued security six stubby halved...

BPJ, any response, direct or indirect, to date?

:roll: Not being a museum curator (keep it unfired in a box) i can't get excited given what I see. Ruger and TALOs marketing has jumped the shark IMO. I like the grips, but they are not obtainable? Even if the finish is matte'ed, that would indicate a mfg shortcut. Might as well paint 'em. In...

Could not open it. Just as well. I'll stick with the originals.

Perhaps you were told a price and availability?

Condition is everything. Original condition but fired fetched $1300+- at a big show last august. No wear or damage at all. Has it been confirmed as being shipped as a folding model?

But they are not available separately...? Don't understand the point of a new model number.

I really like the appearance of the maple wood. I have some spalted maple and white pine grips, nice contrast but I have them on stainless guns. :?: But it is a standard production Blackhawk in all other features. Even the ad copy is cut-n-paste from a "regular, plain vanilla" Blackhawk. Of...

Its a great price for the condition described. Buy it regardless put away mucho 240 grain jacketed ammo. That is the only type the rifle was designed for.

Pm me how about $12 shipped to your mailbox?

Life imitating art. Old as the wind. But only a fool would hand a revolver to a nooby without explaining how to handle it. And only a damn fool would hand a loaded revolver...

Heard about the four to six stainless frames also - but it proves my point that Ruger never marketed to fix the issue (which was a handloader problem in its entirety) , they essentially just gave up. Of course, Magnum Research provides the long frame BFR, a hand built SA for which PTC used to...

I often wonder why Ruger didn't build a stainless version of the SRM? Likewise, IHC on the frame stops 100% of any "flame cutting" potential. I feel like Ruger abandoned the 357 Max and hunters n target shooters across the nation, far too early. Think of the 414 Supermag, or even the 445...

There are several styles of extended magazine releases available for the Standard, Mk I and MkII heel-release guns. Majestic makes one of the best IMO. As always with Ruger guns, a phone call to the company specifying which model you are modifying is the best way to ensure satisfaction. A...
