    Ruger SR-9 Project: Looking for suggestions

    You might want to check the factory trigger pull before you change it. I did a fluff and buff on my SR9C and got the factory trigger pull down to 4.5lbs. It also came with a more crisp trigger than any of my Glocks. If you are set on upgrading your sights, the combination tritium/fiber optic...

    9e misfiring champion.

    My SR9c had some issues. I sent it to Ruger for repair. After it came back I decided to clean the striker channel. There was a lot of debris, probably from production, including medal flakes in the striker channel. After I cleaned the striker channel (Q-Tip works fine) it has been flawless...

    Is there an obstruction between the chamber indicator and the slide?

    Which available AR type rifle is NY compliant

    Windham Weaponry makes a NY State compliant AR, link below. The owner of Windham Weaponry used to own Bushmaster before the freedom group bought it. https://www.windhamweaponry.com/firearms/rifles/223-556-caliber-rifle/src-thd/ Charlie

    Ruger No.1 caliber wish list

    A Ruger No1A in 270 Win to go with my Ruger No1 International in 270 Win. I don't think I can bring myself to pay over $1,000 for one though.

    Question: Super Redhawk, Red Dot fit?

    I am leaning heavily towards a 4MOA dot red dot for my Ruger Super Redhawk. The thinking being that it would be for shooting deer, and maybe hogs, within 50 yards. Any thoughts on 2MOA dot vs 4MOA dot? Charlie

    Question: Super Redhawk, Red Dot fit?

    Thank you. How long would you say you have run your UltraDot on the current battery?

    Question: Super Redhawk, Red Dot fit?

    The UltraDot 30 is top on my list. My main question is on battery life. Aimpoints can be left in for up to 5 years before replacing the battery. That is overkill for me, though it would be nice to know I could accidentally leave my red dot on for a week or 2 and not have to worry about a dead...

    Question: Super Redhawk, Red Dot fit?

    I have heard great things about the ability of UltraDot red dots to handle handgun recoil. The UltraDot model I have been considering is a GEN 1 UltraDot 30. I sure would like to know a little more about battery life on UltraDots (would I be able to run the battery for 12hours a day, for 4 days...

    Question: Super Redhawk, Red Dot fit?

    I have owned a Ruger Super Redhawk in 480 Ruger for many years. It currently wears a 2x20mm Swift Pistol scope. I’m thinking it is time to change things up a bit. I plan to take the scope off of my SRH and mount in on a Benjamin 397 (177 multi-pump pellet rifle). I want to mount a red dot on my...

    Where did this collector's boat paddle stock start

    I bought one somewhere around 1999-2001. I still have it. It is in 223, so no recoil issues. I bought it second hand with a Swift 3-9 scope mounted. It was really accurate, but had a bit of a heavy trigger. I took it to a gunsmith to have the trigger stoned. When I got it back the trigger was...

    Troubleshooting: Old Model Bearcat

    Hondo44, Thanks for all the information. A lot I didn’t know. By too fat on the sear, do you mean too wide (side-to-side)? It sounds like something I could probably do. I suspect not too much length needs to be stoned off the sear. Although if their is someone I could send it to for a...
