Dave Celemets' wait list is moving into next year. I just put my Bearcat in line for a .22 Mag conversion.

I just found this warning in the user manual that seams to suggest this is how it's supposed to function. "CAUTION: The hammer must be carefully eased fully forward before the hammer is drawn back to the full-cock position for the first shot. The hammer should be drawn with a firm positive...

I have a pretty new SS New Bearcat with adjustable sights. The other day I was out shooting it, and the first round on one cylinder fired out of battery. A little lead spit out the side and I had to remove the cylinder to clear a small lead fragment. The firing pin obviously hit it slightly...

I've been watching that site for 6 months. They have been out of stock that long, if not longer. I worry they won't get anymore.

I need a rear sight blade for an adjustable sighted Bearcat. I want one with a white outline on it. I think one for the adjustable sight SP101 will work. I know that one for a single six will not work. It's too wide. Please pm me thanks

I recently got a Bearcat with adjustable sights. Does anyone know where upgraded sights might be had? I'd like to get a rear sight blade with a white outline. I'd also like to get a new front sight, with some orange/red or white on it. I do not want anything fiber optic. Does anyone know...

Thanks guys. I'll send it in.

I've got a NM Single Six convertible, with what appears to be a broken firing pin. Ruger wants me to ship it back. They say ant repair fees will be determined after they see it. Should I go ahead and send it in, or find a local Smith to work on it? There are no major modifications to worry...

Hondo44's test will work, unless the grip frame is aluminum. That's my guess, since it looks different. A magnet will tell you that. If the grip frame is aluminum, you will have to remove the grip and test a part of the frame that gets covered by the grip frame.

When did Ruger start using the lock? I have a single six I might have to check.

That's the best solution I've heard. I'll still need something cheaper for the short term.

I have a Blackhawk and a Single Six that are both convertibles. Does anyone know of a good way to carry the extra cylinder on your belt? How about a padded case to throw in a range bag? thanks

I need some help, and wanted to know what all of the Ruger Connoisseurs here thought. I want a Bearcat, but I can't decide between a Stainless Lipsey's Adjustable sighted model, or a Shopkeeper. The correct answer is obviously both, which I will eventually do, but which one first? I've held...
