    GP 100 and Charter Arms BD .44 Special compare today!!

    I have a SBH .44 mag and a Bulldog .44spec. I usually carry my SR9c, but the Bulldog conceals better in summer clothes. My Bulldog was DAO but came factory with a SA/DA hammer. An easy swap and improved the DA trigger pull also. This was a used gun so I don't know if they still come that way...

    Not a RUGER but I like it....

    You are way out of line Jim Luke. I know you have issues with Radical Rod. He posts a picture of a fine pistol that I think anyone on RF would be proud to own, or at least appreciate. If you don't like RR ignore his posts, if you have a nicer Colt Snubbie show us the pics. No room here for...

    10.5" Super Blackhawks? PICS ADDED

    :D Custom grips can go as high as you can afford, that doesn't sound too bad. Did you check Shop Ruger? They also have a Ruger Logo leather holster that is reasonable too, I have one. I have a 10.5" SBH in blue. Great gun, you can make about any shot you could with a .44mag carbine. Get a...

    First year NM Blackhawk 41 mag value?

    Hi, don't know what part of the country you're in but in New England a 85-90% NM 41 mag would probably be a $350 gun and if you could get it for $300 you would be doing pretty good. I wouldn't pay any premium for a first year NM unless it was LNIB. The .41 Mag is a fine caliber and has it's hard...

    SR9c Striker Blocker & Trigger Quality???

    Hi, I think the point missed in this thread is the OP started tinkering with a new gun. I bought a new SR9c a couple years ago, after 500 shots the trigger and action smoothed out a lot, and by a thousand it was even better. You should break any mechanical product in before you try to...

    Help with range bag recommendation

    :D Any of the soft side laptop computer bags work just fine. They are usually well padded with several compartments and lots of pockets. You can purchase them new at any office supply store, but they are readily available at any thrift store for 5 or ten bucks. My nice laptop bag (that I...

    SR45 question. non-owner.

    :) I just picked up a used SR45 from my LGS. He got it as a trade from a regular customer and claimed that only 10 rounds had been fired through it. He was asking $399, but took my offer of $350 cash. It has the stainless slide just like my SR9c,which I am very pleased with. Haven't had a chance...

    John Wayne 100th Vaquero 45lc TALO

    :?: Well it's a beautiful gun for sure and it's your money and if it appeals to you and you are a big JW fan I reckon you got your money's worth, If you bought it hoping it'll go up in value long term you might be surprised. Most "celebrity tribute collectibles" never bring their new selling...

    Queston about the third Ruger in the family.

    :?: Hi, Here's my 2 cents worth. My .30 Carbine NM BH is one of the most accurate revolvers I have ever shot. If you are experiencing keyholing and shaved copper is it possible your NIB gun wasn't as NIB as you were led to believe and the bore is lead fouled? I would give it a real scrubbing...

    Shooting .44 special ammo in 5 1/2" NM Super Blackhawk

    :D I have a NM SBH with the 10 1/2" barrel until last year I had only fired .44 Mags in it. I picked up a Charter Arms Bulldog snubbie in .44 spec for a carry gun. I carry it with hollow point self defense loads but usually practice with the .44 spec Cowboy Loads to save money. One day at the...

    sr9c let me down

    :cry: Tula ammo can be touch or go. I had never tried it until a buddy gave me most of a box because it gave his Browning Hi-Power fits. My SR9c ate it flawlessly, but it is all stock. I will use it for practice ammo but wouldn't trust it for self defense, qualifying, or competition. It's OK...

    Nice Ruger on Armslist for sale - Ck it out.

    :roll: That's a BBQ gun looking for a cook-out, is he throwing in the alligator skin cowboy boots? :twisted: Cape Cod Terry
