    GP-100 or SP-101 in 327 Federal

    I'm thinking of getting a revolver in 327 Federal. The purpose would be plinking/range use. I might even use it for Icore. Not concealed carry as I already have an LCR 327 for that. In either case I'd get a 4". I want adjustable sights. Which would you recommend and why?

    Bird's head grips.

    How do you like them? I'm thinking of getting one, but I've never seen one in a LGS. I'll have to order it. Perhaps the Single Seven in 327 Federal, or a 45 ACP Talo. Can you get three fingers on the grip?

    Why hammer fired?

    Maybe Ruger will stop making LC9s's and re-issue the LC9 hammer fired version. Well, maybe not.

    Lipsey's Ruger Blackhawk 10MM: Ransom Rest Accuracy Test

    Nice video. Did you get a chance to do the chronograph tests you mentioned?

    17 HMR Single Six

    Anyone have one of these? How do you like it? Accuracy? Seems like it would be a nice plinker and range target gun.

    Future GP100 offerings?

    How about bringing back the 327 Federal GP -- now that ammo is available and 327 Fed is getting some traction. At least 7 shots, or preferably 8.

    Pick one

    Of those two, I'd keep the 327. I have no 38+P LCR, but I do have an LCR 327, LCR 357, and LCR 9mm.

    Lcr 9mm

    I have both an LCR 9mm and an LCR 357. They both weigh the same. In general, most 357 Magnum rounds are higher velocity than the typical 9mm round. 38 Special +P achieves lower velocity than the 9mm. There is no magic here. If you shoot an LCR 357 and it shoots the same bullet weight at the...

    Let's talk magnum revolvers?

    To me, the most interesting magnum is 32 Federal Magnum. It's the most recent "real" magnum around. And because the longer cartridge won't fit in older 32 Caliber revolvers, Federal and Ruger were able to standardize on much higher pressure than the 357, 41, or 44 mags. 45,000 PSI vs...

    Bird's head Single Seven

    I notice Lipseys has a birds head, short barrel, Single Seven listed in 327 Federal. Does anyone have one of these? How do you like the birds head grip? I've never shot a birds head gun, or even found one in a LGS to handle. Would it be reasonable with 327 Federal Magnum?

    LC9 extended magazine issue

    I have an original LC9 hammer fired version. Today I tried some Ruger extended 9 round mags. They worked fine except the slide didn't lock back after the last round. It locks back after the last round every time with the original 7 round mags. What gives? Anyone else have this problem?

    LC9s Cant hit the broad side of a Barn

    If you have the alternate finger extension thingy for your mags, try replacing the flat mag bottom with the extension bottom. I find if I can get my pinky finger on the grip, it helps control the gun.

    ProMag 10 round magazine for LC9

    Does anyone have experience or know if the ProMag 10 round magazine will work with the LC9? Mine is original hammer fired LC9. Does this 10 round mag work well or does it cause trouble?

    Which LCR calibers do you currently own?

    Wondered about the relative popularity of different calibers in LCRs. Please check all the calibers you currently own (no ones you may have sold in the past).
