    30 carbine BH worth?

    Similar experience using surplus LC ammo in mine. Literally had to pound the fired brass out. Tried commercial ammo, the cases fell out with ease. Accuracy didn't suffer either. Put blue Loctite on the screws about the 3rd time they all loosened.

    Preferred 9mm bullet weight?

    124 gr ball works best in my Ruger's, Colt, & Tisas. 115gr ball when I can't obtain 124 gr. Tried 147gr with poor results. Some of my pistols are more finicky about manufacturer than bullet weight though. Handloads / Reloads with cast bullets are another matter, hardness, diameter, gas...

    New Bearcat ammo surprise...

    Winchester ammo won't fully chamber in my Bearcat. Federal, CCi, & Armscor work fine.

    Broken Extractor

    Two weeks ago, the extractor in one of my SR1911-CMD broke. Went to shopruger.com to look for a replacement. Couldn't find any there so I left a message for Ruger Customer Service for help in obtaining a replacement extractor. Later in the day I received a reply stating they were sending me...

    New Bearcat & Win ammo

    Decided to shoot my New Bearcat today using Win & CCI ammo. Fired the CCI ammo first which performed really well. CCI all gone opened; the box of Win ammo expecting to continue shooting. Discovered the Win ammo won't go in the cylinder charge holes unless I pressed really really hard, so...

    Ruger Customer Service kudos

    Was shooting my .30 Carbine New Model Blackhawk on saturday. Had 18 rounds left when I discovered the Base Pin Latch was gone. Looked & looked for its pieces. Get home and log in to shopruger.com. Found they do not offer "parts" on the website; only Sights, Holsters, & Grips. First thing...

    Call me stupid, but....

    FWIW a few years ago I used the Ask the CEO link on the Ruger website asking if there were plans to offer the LCP pistol chambered in the .32acp. The reply I received stated No because the .32acp is not a viable defense round. Oh Well; bought a Beretta Tomcat which lasted till just past the...

    Hollywood Flip....rant

    I'm curious if you read my original post that started this thread; or do you not understand "Showed them how it works, double & single action, loading & unloading"? Or was your post intended for those from bogusbill?

    Hollywood Flip....rant

    Recently I was using my GP160 at the range and a couple other shooters displayed interest in the revolver. Showed them how it works, double & single action, loading & unloading. Agreed to let them try it; here's where it went astray. One guy loaded the gun then Flipped the Cylinder closed like...
