    Ok, to Dry Fire SP-101 .22lr?????

    Rely on your own knowledge GunNut, Neither should any offer advice nor should any be accepted. Though all are well intended in their free information, none have actually examined your gun or its condition from dry firing, except YOU. Fortunately, I own lots of Ruger rimfires, including...

    cat hunting

    Dr. MFH, I certainly agree with you. In all cases, one must weight risks versus rewards. For myself, feral cats die of lead poisoning and carrion fowl take care of the rest. Most often is the case that the parasite dies when the host expires. As to the other claims made by my fellow...

    Hi Standard Longhorn Convertible

    Rock, One the first revolvers that I ever shot, certainly the first rimfire revolver, was a boyhood friend's High Standard Double Nine Convertible. We were only 15 at the time but, typical of that era, responsible young men were yielded appropriate responsibilities. Such were our squirrel...

    I've got a problem with my Winchester '94 Canadian Centennial

    Brass punch fix Use a light hammer and a brass punch. Drift the sight base (residing in the dovetail) to the side you prefer an impact shift. It is that simple. Docbones

    You just gotta wonder why we tolerate em'

    http://www.wcpo.com/news/2004/local/11/16/recount.html Unreal! Badnarik and Cobb, Pres. candidates for the Lib. and Green parties, have raised $150,000 to initiate an Ohio recount. The real cost to the state is around the $1.5 Million dollar mark! Of course, it is all about those "Election...

    I Just Couldn't Do It

    For those intellectual giants that advocate abstention, let’s take your position to the fullest degree of possibility. If everyone assumed your position, that non-voting is acceptable, then no candidate would have been elected. How effective is any process when there is no participation? Or...

    Ruger Bisely Vaquero Single Six Swap

    I just know that there is someone haunting this forum, who has a Bisley Vaquero Single Six. I just know they long, yeah even yearn, for the regular grip configuration. I just know that you want to trade for the far ;) superior lock work and grip frame of the regular Single Six. Today is your...

    .38 Special for feral dogs?

    I have used both Hello Sir, I have used both to the same end degree of success. I merely mentioned the wadcutter to illustrate reality vs. theory. The wadcutter offers great accuracy, low recoil, and good penetration, cutting a nice hole as it goes through. Regards, Docbones

    .38 Special for feral dogs?

    You are just fine Toolmaker, Like you, I am a BIG dog lover. Having been raised in a rural area, we commonly would come across feral dogs while out and about. Rather than being an armchair theorist, I can tell you that I have used all manner of firearms including, but not limited to, 22...

    Contender vs. Encore grip angle

    I am just wondering. Thompson makes note of the more preferable ergonomics of the Encore and G2 versus the Contender. Specifically, I think they mean a difference in the grip angle. If any of our fellow Thompson owners can allow, what difference is there, if any? I am weighing out getting one or...

    Consider this and get angry

    Which D/A revolver in .22???

    Just a quick second, Reverend! Actually, this is just my own opinion, seconding that of Vern's, regarding the SP-101 in .22 LR. I have several rimfire SP-101's and despite the slight difference in cost between this model and others (Taurus and Rossi), its quality far supercedes the others. The...

    5 shot wheelies with 4 or 5" barrels

    Winwun, if you are willing to ... compromise on your number of shots, Old Fluff makes an excellent suggestion. The D-series Colts (Detective Special, Commando, Agent, Cobra, Police Positive Special, Viper, etc.) are six shot revolvers, whose cylinder diameter is very close to the SP-101...

    5 shot wheelies with 4 or 5" barrels

    No, but they really ought to! Winwun, Unfortunately, none of the big two (Ruger & S&W) make such an animal. I have long thought that Ruger should run the .38 special SP-101 in a four inch configuration, preferably with an adjustable sight (like their .22 and their .32 mag.), offering full...

    New S&W or SP101?

    Rangie, you are right! I agree that the SP-101 bearing a 4-inch barrel (half shroud would be my personal preferance) is one gun lacking in Ruger's production line. IMHO, it would be the perfect trail or kit gun. If the world were fair and perfect, Ruger would offer it in fixed and "real"...
