Houston CAS Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Looks like I found my one year old's first Cowboy Action Shooting revolvers.

Chili Ron Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Howdy, OK Maybe wait for Muddy Girl Cammmmmoooooo????????? Best CR
Dutch Wheeler Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I'm guessing that Ruger is going to have a hard time keeping up with demand on this one!
watab kid Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 i might have missed it but , are these full size models or are they downsized like the colt frontier scout ?

watab kid Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 yup - cannot be sold in minnesota or massachusets , light alloy

Yup... that's what I said... but for the price of $179.98, I won't mind pre-ordering. Unfortunately, Turner's seems to be only a California chain. And the only reason they can do this is because single-action revolvers are exempt from the state's egregious handgun law ~ thanks to the efforts of the SASS leadership back when they were headquartered in this state.
Totes Magoats Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 I picked mine up today. $175.99 plus tax. Free spin Cylinder. I pulled out the stock main spring and put in a 19 pounder from a Wolff's single six spring pack. Headed to the south forty now to test it out with various makes of .22LR. While I had the grips off, I pulled out the trigger spring, seems the same as the single six as well. With the poor man's trigger job (one leg of the trigger spring left off), it's got a really nice trigger. The stock spring is a little heavy. My guess is about 4-5 pounds of trigger pull (I don't have a gauge). Fit and finish are nice! I got the bronze ones. UPDATE: 19 lb single six mainspring worked great. All brands of ammo I had worked well. Totes

Chili Ron Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Howdy, I haven't wore out my single six yet. Bought in 1986, still looks about new. Best CR

Warden Callaway Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Local gunshop got three in and sold them today @$199.99 each.
Snake-eye, SASS#45097 Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 Here is a very good writeup on the Ruger 22 https://www.realguns.com/articles/1096.htm
COAL CAR KID, SASS #15921 Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 Got to handle one at the NRA convention in Indy; it's nice, I might have to get one.
Dusty Sights, SASS # 2782 Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 Those cut outs on the left and right side of the hammer. Is there a purpose for them? From the reviews I've read, it is a pretty nice little gun.

John Barleycorn, SASS #76982 Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 Still waiting for my order to be filled.
watab kid Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 if i can get one i will , i kinda like the look of some ive seen , steel cylinder will not be enough here tho , did you put the magnet on other bits ?

TN Mongo, SASS #61450 Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 I got to play with one yesterday that belongs to my gunsmith, Curly Bill Kelly. It was nice! After I shot it, Bill admitted that he had replaced the springs and tuned it a little. He stated it was pretty nice right out of the box.
Chickamauga Slim Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 I won a brace of these at the TN Friends of the NRA gun-o-rama. Put 18lb hammer springs in and rosewood grips from my old model vaqueros. They fit well and the springs work flawlessly. They feel like my vaqueros, now I can afford to practice some! Once I get the hang of practicing I may even start cleaning my guns.
heckofagator Posted July 15, 2019 Posted July 15, 2019 We picked up the bronze a few weeks ago. I wanted one, but kinda used this as an excuse as something smaller for my 12 year old. I was surpised how heavy it was when I first picked it up. But for $179 shipped to my LGS, what a great little gun for the money. Will have to look into some lighter springs....
