In my opinion, 200 rounds of range/target ammunition, and 1 box of defensive cartridges would be my minimum..
It would also be ideal to use it in at least one IDPA match (or similar) or training...
You can also use a vise, use padding material so that the vise jaws don't mar the strut; place the strut in upside-down, and simply use a fork to push down on the spring to allow placement of the...
I agree with Bill; which speedloaders work the best are often platform- and grip-specific. Both HKS and Safariland are highly competent mainstays. I only have one Comp! Safariland, because the...
SD if you were in the area I'd be happy to do it with you, but I strongly counsel at least first send it to Ruger with a detailed letter and let them holistically look at the revolver. That way,...
While I could certainly do it, your best bet is simply to Call Ruger Customer/Tech Support, describe the issue, get an RMA, and try to get a shipping label. Ruger Customer Support is justifiably...
The problem is that you're having a problem. You'll only know if the cylinder partial disassembly and cleaning works if you do it and have positive results afterwards. Alternatively, you can send...
I agree; do a semi-detailed disassembly of the cylinder, and clean the accumulated GSR and crud from the inside of the cylinder and the ball race; use very little, if any lubricant on contact points...
Yep.

Handsome grips. Best Jon
Chris called it the "+P Powder Eater."
Best, Jon
Magnificent, both of them. The 3" -Six is truly a grail gun. I have no idea how many GPs (and -Sixes) Chris worked on, but I haven't seen any pop up on any of the auction sites-ever. Because of...
Norville, can you share with us the details of the GP100 that Chris worked on for you? He did superb work on two of my Rugers (the GP100, a P94 (944) and supervised the work on my Blackhawk, which...
Crap. The images are old Photobucket ones; I'll take some new ones!
Here they are...:

Acknowledged, but I've never had much of a problem in competing in IDPA with 10 round magazines. I recently shot my Beretta 92 in SSP with 15.15+1 capacity, and ended each stage with a boatload...
Weapon magazine capacity is low on my critical criteria list-much more important is ergonomics, reliability, durability, accuracy and ease of maintenance. Personally, I'm far happier with my vetted...
A G19 with a LTT Grip Anchor might be worth experimenting with. I've been impressed; putting one on my Gen 3 G19 and one my Gen5 G23. Best, Jon
Yes.

Anecdotally, it sounds like you may need to transition to impact weapon mode before running out of ammunition...
Best, Jon
Hard pass.
If you want something "different" and entertaining (in a good sense), going for one of the Schofield repros would be my thought.
More seriously, perhaps a Ruger Super GP100 or one...
Exactly....
Best, Jon
From a standpoint of seeing how you worked through the issues with this gun/platform, I'm impressed, and appreciative of you openly discussing the issues, work-arounds, work-throughs, and what seems...
HK P30L or VP40, or Gen5 Glock G23 are my recommendations. Best, Jon
Exceptionally nicely conceived and executed. Let us know how it shoots and carrys.
Whose grips?
