    Best neo- ivory

    You appear to be considering bone stag and rightfully so in my opinion. Depending on who makes them, they can come very close to ivory in appearance. The nice thing about them is that they are a natural material which strikes a tone with me as opposed to the synthetic resins and such. Our own...

    There's not enough room in the Single Six cylinder for 7 32's. Perhaps a mid frame 327? That would be something!

    New Single 10 issues - help please

    I have been coming to the conclusion that the cylinder length may be the problem. Expanding a bit when heated by firing. The cylinder is an extremely tight fit in getting it into or out of the gun. I am comparing this fit to any of the other dozen or so Ruger SA's I own and shoot. What if I...

    New Single 10 issues - help please

    It is not the transfer bar - I understand it's working. When it is the transfer bar, you can still feel a slight amount of movement - this one freezes up solid - no movement at all.

    New Single 10 issues - help please

    I recently bought a new Single 10 stainless and took it to the range last Friday. First two cylinders full went just fine as I corrected the sight settings. On the next loading the cylinder was becoming very sticky and did not want to turn easily. I closed the loading gate and found...

    A special run?? Cleanup??

    Picked up my new 5 1/2" Bisley 44 special yesterday - it sure looks great! Weather permitting it will go to the range this weekend. Thanks Lipseys - and Jason as well. You've got some great ideas on what guns to sell! ward

    Home brew Bisley

    Should be a great gun - Bisley's are growing on me lately. Recently converted a 6.5" 32 mag to Bisley when I had the chance to pickup a reasonably priced 22 Bisley. I sure do enjoy shooting the 32. ward

    Baby Vaquero Price check

    The 32's can be great fun. A lot of bang with very little recoil. I have several. The $550 price is certainly on the high side but they do seem to be rather popular these days. The earlier run came in blue finish with adjustable sights only. Barrel lengths were 4 5/8, 5 1/2, 6 1/2, and 9...

    Jason, thanks for the information. Last Saturday I had my dealer put a 5 1/2" Bisley 44 Special on order. Any ideas on delivery????? ward

    Yonder comes a sucker. Part deux.

    I have a 6 1/2" 44 mag Flat top about 400 numbers older than yours and it came with a XR3 grip frame and the correct grips and it is a favorite shooter. I also have a 7 1/2" 44 mag Flat top about 1000 numbers older than yours and it came with the XR3 RED grip frame. I bought the 7 1/2" from...

    Cylinder Latch not dropping

    The hammer will not cock as the cylinder can't advance. I suppose I'll have to take it back apart and see if I can figure out why it's being a problem.

    Cylinder Latch not dropping

    Over the weekend I did a grip frame parts swap between a Ruger Single Six Bisley and a Ruger Single Six 32 mag. When at the range, the cylinder latch on my new Bisley 32 was hanging up and not dropping when attempting to cock the hammer. I did not switch the latch so each gun has their...
