Oooooh Stovey - That is one fine-looking hand cannon. Makes mine look like a poor man's gun.

I'm a HUGE fan of shorty's and I'm looking forward to your project.

I know of a lot of little things to do to these that add up. But I'd never try and refinish a pistol. I do not have that kind of talent nor am I that brave to take a tool to the outiside of one... Laughing

For any pistol work beyond my ablility I trust David White (deersniper) @ D and T Custom Gunworks. He got ol' "Boomer" working like a champ. Give him an e-mail or call him w/ any ? you have. Good, honest, Christian American gunsmith.

Back to the Ruger thread.

Rugers rock!

Here's the poor-man's version of the Ruger .44

No problem blowing up potatoes at 50 yards

Now thats a hunting pistol. O yeh! I like it. Reminds me of my old 3-screw w.o the optics. I like the potato target idea and that I've gotta try- I bet them things frag big time!

You gotta red blanky for taking pics of guns on too ?!

Awesome.

Now you made me want to take the BFR out for a day of "plinking".

Down to the man cave to cook up some 45-70's. Hopefully I won't make any kids cry this time.

Pling and BFR- hmmm....that's some major plinkn' there!

OK- I gotta ask, what made the kids cry last time?

The concussion of the ammo.....
The flame comming from the muzzle.....
The evil laughter coming from the man with the gun?

ALL OF THE ABOVE Paul....all of the above mate. Laughing

Cheers, Vince

My three girls never cried over
The concussion of the ammo.....
The flame comming from the muzzle.....
The evil laughter coming from the man with the gun?

As pre-teens they all loved shooting that Ruger .44 - and they had the evil laughter to go with it, too. Now (in their twenties) they all prefer shooting semiautos, especially the M&P 40.

Perhaps it was all of the above coming from the man behind the reloader, instead of the gun. Shocked

Got my order from Brownell's with the parts I need to proceed. They include a Bisley hammer, standard steel grip frame (the aluminum one was so pitted the by the time I got all of the pits out the trigger guard was paper-thin), steel ejector rod housing, front sight and grips. Just in time too...if I don't order from Brownell's on a fairly regular basis they think I died. Hoping to have the Ruger done by the end of next week or first part of the following one. It all depends on time and Mama's "Honey-Do list".
