I've been wanting to try some Pachmayr grips on my GP-100, specifically a softer version called The Gripper. However, in reading customers comments on Midway and Amazon, a number of people are saying that for some reason the Pachmayrs are not lining up with the screw holes on the GP-100 frame...

I just bought one for for $900 and topped it with a 3-9x40 Leupold that I had...I love this rifle..I've always wanted one and this one has not been shot, but it could not be sold as new.. I used to shoot a friends 220 Swift in Wyoming over 40 years ago and I have always thought highly of the...

My wife bought me a new Ruger Commander for Christmas, but until today I haven't really had a chance to shoot it a lot...nice pistol, sights dead on out of the box...but, I just don't like the grips..not sure why either... I put 100 rounds through it today, no malfunctions at all. It was...

I love my 41 Blackhawk and I reload all the time for it..it's worth it...

I finally got to shoot my new pistol that my wife got me for Christmas. I put 100 rounds of Winchester white box thru it today without a single hiccup. I was shooting at a 6 inch gong about 21 feet from me and hitting it consistently once I settled down. The sights were dead on right out of...

I have the 3 inch stainless and love it. I carry mine in a El Paso Tom Threeperson's holster. I have the old style grips on mine,,,I've thought about switching them out to something else, but I can't find anything I like...

I just picked up a Ruger Mini-14, 180 series, made in 1977 at an estate sale. I onwed a Mini-30 years ago for a short time but I traded it so I never got familiar with the rifles. The stock is beat up pretty bad, everything else is in good shape. I know these aren't the most accurate rifles...

Altamont has what you need, http://www.altamontco.com/experimental/

I have both, like both.

My searching shows some (very few) fairly high velocity loads, around 1400 FPS; but these are not from companies, they are from inidviduals. I've also found a number of powders that the fastest loads listed are around 1000 FPS, these are in my books and official websites. I'm wanting to go to...

I have some 215 grain RNFP 41 caliber bullets. How fast can I push these out of my Blackhawk before leading gets to be a problem? They are listed as Brinell 18 on hardness.

The loudness of the cocking of the pistol has crossed my mind. I guess all I can do is hope that the deer doesn't notice. My ideal pistol for this would be a double action Redhawk in 41 magnum, but I don't have that kind of money at this time. I have a Vaquero in 45 Colt with a 7 1/2 inch...

This year we will be allowed to hunt deer during muzzle loading season with a pistol. I'm planning on using my .41 magnum Ruger Blackhawk, I'm using 210 grain Hornady hollowpoint bullet at around 1300 feet per second. is this a sufficient load in ya'lls opinion, is there something better...

Mernickle makes a high ride holster for single actions....

Very nice looking Security Six. I really like all the finishes available to us these days..
