Wow! Just what I always wanted Ruger to do. These just have to become a part of the regular catalog. And with the tooling that they must of had to do with the Carpenter 465 steel and the recessed heads and exclusive base pin etc. they nearly have to continue making them to recoup the costs. Man...
I can honestly say that some of my favorite living creatures that I have met in this world has been my housecats. Ive had some wonderful dogs and cared a lot for them too. But I found that cats just seem to be a little more like humans. They take humans based on the way they are treated by them...
Mine was made around the summer of 2007 (06/20/07 on the casing envelope) and had the green/black laminated grips, it was the first one I can remember seeing that had the warning passage moved to the bottom of the barrel. Little stuff like that can give you an idea of which batch yours came...
Realistically I am all for one or two guns of all types being saved for historical value. But that is for someone else to do. I would love to have a real original .44 Mag flattop and/or pre model 29 Smith & Wesson. However if I were to obtain one of those rare guns I would shoot it. Period. That...
I have an "old" new model thats 36 years old and a couple that are 5-6 years old. The only real difference I see is that the blue is a lot more glossy on the old one.
That's for sure. $65,000.00 and most never see mud. And not meant to knock the new ones but the personality of the vehicle changed dramatically. So did my favorite the Montero.
You see a lot of those four door versions known as troop carriers or troopys in a lot of the Nat Geo and Discovery stuff on tv. Makes you wish you could see those places in person for sure.
I have found that of all my .44 Mags the Super Blackhawk is the best from a pure shooting stand point. Pointibility,recoil management, ability to easily carry and they just look good. Oddly the one that I wanted the most, the Smith 629 is the one that I pick up last to go shooting. The heaviest...
Smith & Wesson must have read all the stuff about their guns being too weakly built for constant heavy loadings. I really wanted a .460 until I first gazed upon it.. It's just too durn big for what I think a handgun is supposed to be like. On the other hand the Super Redhawk doesn't seem that...
