I got a new GP100, 4". It had some scratches on the muzzle. I took a pic posted here and got great advice. Took it out, and it's been awesome! Really accurate. I've now put 190 rounds through it. I have only taken her shooting twice. 100 Blazer Brass 158 gr. JHP, 40 Speer 125 gr. Gold Dot, and 50 Rem UMC 125 gr. SJHP. All have been very accurate. I put 100 rounds through it this morning. When I was 2/3rs through my shooting session I leveled the revolver to shoot another six rounds and noticed the rear sight cross pin sticking out the left side of the gun! It was about 1/2 way out. I bring a bunch of tools in my range bag. I got out the rubber mallet and tapped it back in. I shot about 20 more rounds. No issues with accuracy, but the pin started backing out to the left again. Not nearly as much as before, but it did move. I didn't notice this on my first range trip with it.
How do I fix this? Do I need to send back to Ruger? Should I get a new rear sight cross pin from. numrich and install?
