I recently got to look over an old RG 40 2” .38 SPL revolver.
I got to doing research and dFanged if I can tell the difference between an RH38S and RG40.
Anyhow I got to poking about the Internet and found piles of …. er, waste… and what appears to be a few nuggets and jewels.
For one thing I noticed the design similarities between Some Arminus revolvers of the 1950’s, the RG revolvers of the 1960’s-80’s and the current “Windicator” Brand revolvers.
The simularities that appear between the RG 40 .38 SPL and the Windicator .357 2” appear that the Windicator actual cut a few cornors on the RG design.
Seriously, how different are the two designs? How different are the Materials?
Having in the past shot various RG revolvers I can say that the RG 38, 38S, and 40 in .38 Special are not as crappy as say the RG14 or their earlier SAA .22 revolvers.
How different are the RGs from The Windicator? Other than reputation.
Oh and will Windicator rubber grips fit the RG 40?
