    Bushing wrench needed for SR1911CMD takedown??

    Forgive my ignorance, but I have never owned/touched a smaller size 1911 & I do NOT want a gun that requires tools to disassemble (just a personal pet peeve). So.....Does a commander sized SR 1911CMD require a barrel bushing for disassembly? Can it be easily disassembled without the wrench...

    Any new Ruger 1911s on the horizon ?

    I'm a cheap date...All I would ask is to add a rail to the regular SR1911

    45lc or 357mag for New Vaquero??

    Possible silly question = Would it be better to get a 45lc or 357mag when buying a new short barrel 4.6 inch Ruger New Vaquero?? I would like to have a little caliber consolidation since I want to also get a GP100 & a S&W model 19 (they are some toys that I have wanted for some time but never...

    Old Flattop 357

    That's understandable. I have had the EXACT thing happen to me before, gets kinda irritating to say the least. I meant what I said, SWEET gun, Enjoy!!!!

    Quality of Ruger holsters??

    I see that Ruger sells some leather holsters in its Accessory Catalog made by Triple K, Hunter & COWS. I have never examined any of them in real life. Are they any good?? thanks, Bill

    Old Flattop 357

    Maybe it's just that I am now interested in them that I can't find them (kinda like hunting deer or squirrels) but I haven't been able to find ANY flattops (and precious few Old Models) at the last two shows I attended. If I were to see that gun & barrel length for @$500 at a show, it WOULD have...

    Old Flattop 357

    If it's not too personal a question, how many Fed reserve Notes would such a fine flattop go for these days??

    Which SA to start with??

    Now you two, as I say to my kids sometimes....Do NOT make me come in there!!! 8) My intended purposes would be to have some single actions that I have lusted over for some time that will allow me to learn to use a single action revolver. A grown boy's toy, Christmas gift to myself. This...

    Price of a short barrel Old Model 45lc Blackhawk??

    As an offshoot of my other thread, what price should I reasonably expect to pay for a 4 5/8 inch barrel Old Model 45lc Blackhawk in very good-excellent, but NOT safe queen/NIB shape?? And how often do they come up for sale. Since I started looking for one they have been non-existent on the...

    Which SA to start with??

    I forgot to list an OM 45lc Blackhawk to the list because apparently they are somewhat scarce in the shorter barrel. I held a short barrel 357 OM blkhwk yesterday and it was a really nice one, $525. I would just rather have a 44 or 45.
