Me: Looks cool, but I'm not beta-testing any "new" anything from Ruger any longer.
Me: ...and there's why.
That sucks. I don't really get the idea behind cramming an extra cartridge in there anyway. I mean other than "it sells". I do kinda like the unfluted cylinder look, though.
Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.
I'll admit I was a bit and bothered over the very revolver that this thread is about specifically because of the 3" barrel and adjustable sights. Then I heard about the rim lock bug...... I couldn't really care less about the extra shot, so I'd rather have 6 and know that it works like GP100's have for about 30 years.
Yeah, I did too until I did a little digging. Honestly though, I like the fixed Ruger sights better than Smith's. At least the one sample I've shot. My brother has this 4" fixed sighted, half lug barrel, blued GP100 that I just love. It has more light around the front sight than model 10 Smiths do and I can really do some decent work with that thing. Too bad little bro refuses to sell it to me.....
