      Redhawk Barrel Launch

      It lauched pretty darned fast too! Barrel missed the target though. Would have liked to see what sort of hole it would have punched... Well I spoke with Ruger this morning and the conversation basically amounted to, "we'll take a look at it" and not much more than that. UPS is on their way...

      Redhawk Barrel Launch

      Didn't really get hurt, but it stung like a bast_rd. Recoil felt like my .454 and caught me off guard. Surprised the crap out of the kid in the lane next to me too. That video posted here is just about exactly how it happened.

      Redhawk Barrel Launch

      Hello INGO's, been awhile since I've visited since moving to PA. Reporting back due to a interesting afternon I had today... Well folks, I was so excited that I was finally able to get myself a 5.5" Redhawk. And a brand new one at that. Just brought this home yesterday and it sure was not...

      Dry Fire

      Another "all depends on the gun" here. Some, such as Rugers, are recomended by the manufactureer to dry fire and some are recomended by the manufacturer to NOT dry fire. All depends on the design, no matter if it is a centerfire or a rimfire. A lot of rimfire revolvers have a recessed chamber so...

      Accidental discharge?

      Except for VERY VERY RARE circumstances that could potenially make you rich and collapse a gun manufacturer... Modern firearms don't fire unless you intentionally pull the trigger.

      Mothers Mag and Aluminium Polish Sparkles!

      Exactly- I cut up an old t-shirt and scrubbed away. I just kept using the same piece and it eventually soaked up such a good bit I didn't have to add much to keep going. I did some minimal disassembly and removed the cylinder and cylinder release button, but I've read that others just leave...

      Curiosity Question - semi auto vs revolver

      Not in a locked breech recoil operated design... The slide doesn't actaully cycle until the bullet exits the muzzle therefore no reactive forces from the bullet are absorbed by the slide action. However, the felt recoil will less because when the slide finally does cycle, a good bit of the...

      Ruger P-series

      The P94 was a 9mm that is now discontinued and the P944 is the .40 s&w version. The P94 was originally introduced as a compact version of the P89. The P944's still only say P94 on the slide. It's just the tooling was never updated. Not that it makes a real big difference, but if you're going...
