Last month I purchased a 1992 NIB ROA stainless 44 with target sights. It definitely is the finest shooting handgun that I own, smokeless or BP. Anyway this weekend I was back in the Red River area of Central Idaho enjoying all of my 44s and on the 3rd round out of the Ruger the lever dropped to my astonishment. The fire level was low after raining most of the weekend by the way. Upon further inspection I discovered that the front latch had fallen off the barrel. I later found it and now will be making a trip to the local gunsmith at Winchester. I was shooting 30 grams of Goex under Cream of Wheat and a size .457 RB. Very surprised to say the least!
