Do a Google search for “Ruger MK bolt racker,” and you should see some options. From there, you could “rabbit hole” all day! 😂 Some similar (or at least related!) accessory options: https://www.tandemkross.com/halo-charging-ring-rugermkiii-mkiv-2245 ⬆️ I think this one might be the most...

Several of you are missing the forest for the trees… Reread JAYDAWG's original post. Yes, the photo shows printed material- he gives us the publication name, and issue. As he states, he is looking for the "tablecloth" that's in the background of the photo that's on the magazine cover he...

@DerekR - This stainless Bearcat w/elk stags on Sack Peterson's page is my all-time favorite! ⬇️ http://www.sackpeterson.com/models/bearcat.html (I chose to post a link, vs. "stealing" his photo.) I think the smoothed (then fluted and chamfered) cylinder is what really sets it off! Well…...

Hello, gnappi- My bag arrived safe and sound, today. Thank you for the great Karma! 👍

Well now that doesn't seem well-reasoned, just based on one word... 🙄 Who do you suppose designed and built all those millions and millions of classic Rugers, Smiths, Colts, Winchesters, Marlins, and Remingtons that so many of us here love? 😂 I'll concede that I've never been impressed with...

Sounds like you're looking at an NR-6F. I think "cowboy guns" look "right" with fixed sights. ❤️ Fixed sights are practical, but oh so ugly! 🤭 $475 OTD for the package you describe is not out of line, IMHO. Here's an NR-5F currently up for auction, though methinks at $750, the seller is a...

OP @firefiterjohn didn't specify blued or stainless. They have make both blued and stainless, in that configuration. Check this thread for a pic of the stainless version that I think OP @firefiterjohn has found...

I'm inclined to offer the same advice, but… I suspect that it will turn out be a 6.5" barrel. I seem to recall the Single-Six Hunter being the only model that was offered in a 7-1/2" barrel(?). 💡

I ended up buying a "beater" Canadian Centennial edition, just to scratch my finger groove "itch!" While the stock appears designed for scope use, the top of the receiver has a bunch of fancy scrollwork. Mounting a scope base covers all that up, of course… 🤭

I’ll take it! (One...) PM to follow, w/my address. Thanks for the great Karma! 👍

I found a clean used KMK678GC MKII pistol in its box. I had no memory of it! 😳 I found a receipt from a local shop in the box, which suggested that the price was "too good to pass up." That jogged my memory... I bought it because the price was too good to pass up! 😂

A lot depends on the material the mags are made of… When armoring Glocks, I pop the magazine base plates off, and disassemble the mags. I wipe everything down to get it dust-free, paying particular attention to the magazine follower. Then they're assembled dry, and they're ready to go. My...

Burris FastFire for reflex, and UltraDot for tube style. 👍 Both have been around for years (UltraDot for decades…), enjoy very good reputations as quality sights, and are not terribly expensive. If you’re considering a tube-style sight, you might want to read this except from...
