Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494

I have .32 Rugers prepared by well-known cowboy smith and wonder why the cylinder pin has a spot of weld at the securing groove. This requires the pin to be inserted basically the same orientation each time on reassembly, with the spot obviously oriented to the barrel so the base pin can be installed. As there had never been an issue with cylinder security and the modification was included in the action preparation, I wonder what the purpose/advantage is. What have I been missing all these years?

Now if that had been a $3 dollar bill.....

In my small (and small town) business, I've always counted back, and handed back change first, with customers tendered $$ on the shelf above the drawer. The faces on the bills always face the same way because that's how they get put into the drawer. Wrinkled or dog-eared bills get straightened out before going into the drawer. Especially dislike those who pull a wad of crushed bills out of their front pocket...... I pause a bit and tell them"It's OK, I'll iron them tonight". Learned counting back on my paper route beginning 1956.

BINGO! And many thanks!

Some months back there was a photo of a family taken at EOT last year, IIRC, and there was a link to their bullet business. They made cast and coated lead bullets, and had good reviews. My search abilities are rather lacking, and my memory banks aren't functioning well, either. Does anyone recall the bullet business I'm referring to? Thanks to anyone who does....... BB

BTW---- .40 S&W in nickel.

. Thanks! Will be able to check it when I get home from work. Sorry for delay in communication. BB

Any nickel still available? Interested in 1K if so. Please PM with details. Thanks!

.327 Federal. My Ruger .32's will digest .32 ACP, .32 S&W, .32 S&W Long, and .32 H&R Magnum. With the addition of .327 Fed you could deal with everything from rodent pests to deer.

I seem to be unable to find the website or any information. I don't do Fakebook or other forms of 'social media'. Guess I'm just antisocial..... Any ideas?

Will they fit older Blackhawks? If so, I'll take 'em.
