After 14 years.....of Cowboy Action Shooting......with Rugers in several sizes and calibers.......I just got my Rugers back from a G-Smith......with NO transfer bars! I've LOVED my Rugers. But......I've broken transfer bars. I've BENT transfer bars! And the "CLICK" when I was expecting a "BANG!".....has cost me seconds and has cost me match wins! So......the transfer bars are now a dim memory. I look forward to the "New" Rugers......and many many BANGS!!!!!
