    Vaquero Front Sight Alignment

    More than half of the Ruger revolvers I’ve ever owned had over or under clocked barrels. Two of the three that I currently own are perfect. The third one, a .45 acp/.45 Colt convertible Blackhawk is awful. It still shoots slightly to the left with the rear sight cranked all the way to the right...

    Gunsmithing Ruger Single Actions

    That's a medium frame gun. Best to stick to 44 specials in that one. If you want a magnum you should buy one.

    Current Production Blackhawk Quality

    I picked up a .44 magnum (model 0813) two days ago. The front sight isn't canted but it does have a couple of flaws. When I took it out of the box three things jump out at me. The finish on the cylinder doesn't match the rest of the gun, it appears duller, the rear sight was adjusted all the way...

    Ruger 10/22 Target /Light Varmint or build ?

    I've done a couple of bull barrel builds and it's real easy to put $700-$800 into one. Now I'd think real hard about the LVT with some trigger work.

    Okay, stupid question... 10/22 build

    Buy a carbine and keep what you have for spares. You'll spend as much or more on a receiver, trigger group, & bolt when you add it all up.

    10/22 LVT (mod 1235) back in production?

    I know that this is an old thread but the word from Accusport is that they have 600 more LVTs coming soon. No doubt that they'll be allocated to high volume dealers. Keep your eyes peeled.

    Normal pic rail for a 22/45?

    That one requires rear sight removal.

    10/22 won't eject shells

    That ejector is the secondary ejector, the primary is part of the magazine. That's the one that counts when you're shooting the gun. I'd install a VQ extractor, get a new factory magazine, and get a new secondary ejector from Brownells (780-010-044WB Ejector Mfr Part: B80). If that doesn't cure...

    Greatest Group Buy of 44 spc.brass in the world IS A GO !!!

    What's the latest on the non existant brass? Starline must be making it out of unobtanium.

    lipsey single six

    The only thing that's different from a catalogued stainless single six is the barrel length.

    Bill Ruger designed firearms?

    Sorry, the concept was already done. He may have tweeked ( Hey, I got your spell check right here! ) the design but he copied many guns. He copied Colt single action revolvers, the Ruger No.1 single shot is a copy of the farquharson rifle. the Red label shotgun is a copy of the browning...

    Bill Ruger designed firearms?

    He was great at copying desiigns and reverse engineering them but a firearms genious? I don't think so.
