Saga of the Ruger "Pitted Stainless Steel Cylinder".

[steelshooterco]

I bought an old model T from the crusher, it is a in a nice cube so it will be easy to ship back to Ford, I'm expecting them to send me a restored model T.


Get real!

Can you still get any color, as long as it's Black?

 

[steelshooterco]

Any color under the rainbow.... as long as it is basic black LOL

To put it gently, this is one of the biggest head scratchin' threads I've read in a long time. :roll:

Here all along I thought it was just me confused by this thread.

Finally received the definitive Reply from Ruger: They will Not Exchange the Bad cylinder unless we send a 'Single six' revolver in with it to have Ruger Fit the New cylinder.

Oh well.

[daveg.inkc]

We could have told you that!

 

[Chev. William]

Yes, There were Those Who Said That.
But We Had to Try!

You have to send the whole piece. And Ruger would have fixed it free.

Perhaps you do onot understand The Problem I faced.
1. The ".22 Cal Single Six" I own is Already Converted to Center Fire and ".25ACP" Cartridge use in 8 shot cylinders.
2. Ruger Said the Revolver Would be Returned to STOCK ORIGINAL Condition BEFORE they would consider fitting a Replacement cylinder to it.
3. Ruger said they would discard All my Custom Changes; including the 10-5/8" long .25ACP Barrel.

4. The Stainless steel 6-shot Cylinder was Purchased to be Re cut to .32 COLT Long (.312" case body diameter).
5. My Ruger in .32 H&R Magnum is NOT currently able to properly use a "Recessed Rim" Cylinder in Place fo the .32 H&R "Exposed Rim" cylinder because the Chamber Length makes the .32 H&R Cylinder Longer from Rear of Ratchet to Front of Chambers., but the Same length from Rear of Ratchet to Front of Center Boss.

Now Just WHICH revolver would YOU send to Ruger for the "Fitting"?

Tried Coin collecting as A youth, then Stamp collecting in my Teens. Both were Unsatisfactory to me.
Not Interested in Baseball Cards; but my Nephew has a Large collection and does Trade in Them.

I don't see how this has anything to do with Ruger at this point. You didn't buy a gun from Ruger that came with a bad cylinder. Nor did you buy a Ruger revolver second hand with a part that went bad. You bought a cylinder of unknown provenance from someone on Ebay. I don't see how Ruger has any reason to do anything for you. Heck for all you know it could be something someone fished out of a scrap metal bin, thrown away for the very issue you're concerned with. If you have any recourse, it's with the Ebay seller, not Ruger.

 

[daveg.inkc]

Does this mean you are going to padlock thread?

 

[daveg.inkc]

Thanks CAS, I never knew where said cylinder was acquired

 

[daveg.inkc]

And, all joking aside, can a 25 ACP shoot thru a wet paper sack?
