    Revolver help!

    Cooldill. I'll add my two cents. I have two ruger sp101s in .357, and carry one quite often. They are easy to do a trigger job, and make them smooth as butter. Most rugers that I have tried from the factory are a little tough, too heavy to pull in double action for self defence. But don't...

    SP101, Trigger & Hammer Shims

    Drail, if your comment about springs was concerning my post, I didn't make myself clear. Note the article from Kevin Wilson, and there is another I used more from SP101 IBOK. I certainly understand that springs alone is not a "trigger Job", and I did not mean to give that impression. But...

    SP101, Trigger & Hammer Shims

    HarryO, the sp101 is one of the easiest revolvers to do a trigger job. I didn't use any shims, just replaced the spring kit I got from brownells, and it is smooth as can be. Very simple, just google--- "Ruger SP101 Trigger Job Guide", by Kevin Wilson. It will work!! My sp101 in .38 special...

    S&W Model 696 Stainless

    Got an idea what year of manufacture? Serial #CBT 77XX for the 696. Here's my way of thinking__ I can get a S&W 19-3, 2 1/2 inch barrel, for three hundred dollars less, and I have other .357's, and do not reload. So maybe I'd be better off to go that route. .44 specials to buy and shoot...

    S&W Model 696 Stainless

    Thanks for the response, Pendennis. This has no box, though that means nothing to me, I like shooters! But I see the mid 80's is not correct. I'm not a reloader, I sold all my stuff years ago, though that was a bad move. I'll see if I can get them down to a lower price, starting at 750.00...
