Welcome to a pretty good bunch of Ruger fans.

I had the same issue with my lcp. I tried adjusting my grip different ways with no improvement. Clearly my thumb was depressing the magazine button enough to cause the magazine to drop. A Hogue grip seemed to add just enough thickness to the grip to reduce the likelihood of depressing the...

Welcome from Missouri.

Another welcome from Missouri.

Welcome from Missouri.

Welcome to the forum.

I used to try to keep an informal count in my head, after a few years, I realized that it really didn't make a difference. I like to rotate guns on range trips, usually bringing a couple at a time. I keep thinking about learning to reload, but haven't yet, so everything is factory and a little...

Yep! A good deal. The Taurus was ok. Once you buy another magazine, you won't be very far from the average promo price. Still, I probably would have taken the deal myself.

I have never used one but I have curious about them. A bunch of years ago, I saw Tom Knapp perform one of his shotgun shooting shows. It was a lot of fun. One of the things he demonstrated was a barrel extension for a shotgun. It simply screwed in to the choke threads and essentially doubled the...

Unfortunately, sometimes those small parts never make it to a magnetic tray. They fly away quickly. I will try the mesh lingerie laundry bag trick. I am sure my wife won't mind. What happens when you can't find your magnetic tray? Mine disappears frequently, sometimes with important parts...

Hmm, you know it doesn't say "gun not included" anywhere in the ad. Companies always seem to put that disclaimer on everything. Maybe I should go and insist on my missing Ruger from the box!

Thanks for the replies. I really don't think that it is a trigger control issue. I don't have that problem with other handguns. I seem to be pretty consistent with other guns including other double action revolvers. I am kind of thinking that I just can not really get a confident feel for where...

After about a years absence from the range, I went out and burned through some ammo. I stared at the safe and decided to bring some different guns. Ruger P90. It has been sitting in the safe for at least a dozen years. I probably only put a hundred rounds through it many years ago. I didn't...

Thanks!! I disassembled it again and gave the little set screw a few more turns to look more like the example in your photos. I hoped that I guessed right as it is a pain to keep disassembling and reassembling it. I must have turned it just right as it was perfect after reassembly. Of course...

Well I did a search and didn't come up with what I needed. After many years of letting my MK II sit in the safe unused, I decided it's time to bring it out and start shooting it again. I am not getting any younger, and there isn't any way I could possibly wear it out. I kinda stopped years ago...
