    22lr carry for defense??

    {Of course, just one man's opinion} Own several handguns, mostly Rugers. Among them a Mark 2 22/45. Too large for concealed carry, but if only one person broke into my house...maybe ,just maybe ,the 10 rounds might work.....if most hit. 22 long rifle rounds have killed way more people than...

    6 inch or 4 inch

    My .357 history. 1981 bought a Blackhawk with a 6.5'' barrel, wish I still owned it ! Replaced it with a stainless 6'' Security Six, wish I still owned it ! Replaced with a 4'' plated S&W model 586....not a fan. Good quality gun,just not a good fit for me. Late 80's found THE GUN everybody...

    357 mag 125gr question

    scubadad. Ruger's are over built on purpose. Traded in a stainless steel 6'' Python for a new 6'' GP100 decades ago,cause it couldn't handle aggressive hand loads.Innards were delicate. The GP100 EATS 125-158 GRAINS LIKE CANDY. What yer sweating is history from the K-framed SMITH AND...

    Ruger rubber grips for GP100 - is this normal?

    4x5, Although it sucks they sent it out like that.... Sounds like an honest effort to make it right. Own a GP100,SRH, and SP101....all bought a dozen+ years ago. If the quality still compares, one of the best recoil absorbing factory grips made.
