Ruger gets most of their grips from either Alamont or Hogue, at Alamont you can get the bonded ivory for $28 plus shipping, this is without the ruger emblem if that means anything to you, to me it doesn't, I have several grips from Alamont and they are very nice, I have the checkered rosewood on...

I know about CAS doing the cylinders, I have the reamer and the pilots to do it myself, I have 6 revolvers to do, figured it would be cheaper to buy the reamer and pilots myself than to send off 6 cylinders with his price per cylinder and shipping. I'm just asking about the drill bit if it...

I know they have reamers out there to ream the under size throats on 45LC. Was watching a thread on the SASS forum and one of the guys said he took a 29/64" drill bit and did his throats, this was some time ago by the way, just getting around to post and ask about this. I can see where you...

Ruger 38/40--with extra cylinder in 40, this is what I have heard 674 in 4 5/8 753 in 5 1/2 with wood grips plus a few with stag grips, very few with stag All for now JD Trampas

I shoot Senior Duelist in CAS, I use the 17# in all of them and use Winchester primers and have never had any failures to date, before going to Duelist still had no trouble with the 17# springs, this is 6 years of shooting cowboy All for now JD Trampas

They are going for a high price now, these rugers in 38-40 with the 40 S&W cylinder in the old model, only 674 in 4 5/8 made, 753 in 5 1/2 made, they can be found if patient, but at a high price unless you are lucky to find one at a cheaper price, have heard from $800 up, I sold one last year...

These ruger's in 38/40 and 40 were a special run by ruger for Davidsons, they are scarce and high priced. They made 674 in 4 5/8 and 753 in 5 1/2 barrel length. Most were wood grips and a few of them had stage grips, the ones with stag grips bring a very high price. I just sold one of these to a...

I use snap caps, the A-zoon ones, that is just me, I know alot of people that don't, each to their own I guess, better be safe than sorry All for now JD Tampas

I hope you are kidding on this, I'm sure you are, was fun reading though, now the truth, what did you think of them. I have a pair of them and I like them just fine. All for now JD Trampas

Sorry for your loss, prayers up for your family All for now JD Trampas

If you have a Sportsmans Warehouse, Bass Pro, Scheels All Sports, Cabelas, go there, they should have what you need. I picked mine up at Sportsmans Warehouse, it is a RCBS trigger gauge, works good enough for me, I thought about the digital ones but didn't want to spend that kind of money...

Been thinking of doing this also, I understand the bras lap to polish, is that a necessay thing or not?? How do you know how far to go, go to far on 11 degree, accuracy out the door and worse All for now JD Trampas P.S. I have 4 sets of vaquero's plus a few single ones, thinking of doing the...

I have six sets of ruger vaquero's, all stock base pins with the exception of the wolff base pin spring along with the hammer and trigger spring, no problems at all, but I'm a cowboy shooter so I don't do full house loads. If your ruger is the new style, small frame, cock the hammer, look to...
