Re: RCA Forum has been overrun
Good morning Guys, Don't panic, the RCA forum has NOT been COMPROMISD. Every day posts come in from all over the world, mostly Eastern Europe. Most are advertisements soliciting business. I'm sure there is a paid service somewhere that distributes the ads, automatically generated to websites around ...

.357 Blackhawk
Hello Guys,
I need a photo of BKH4 and BKH36, type 2 transition guns, i.e. XR3RED and integral sight ribs, MICRO rear sight and aluminum ejector rod housing. Typically found in the 45500-46900 serial number range.
Thanks, John

Re: THE RUGER CORP. DRILLS
Terry,
The 3/8" stick drill is unusual in that it is fitted with a standard crank, the ones that I have seen all have an adjustable two position crank, thus more leverage when drilling with a larger size bit. These are wonderful drills, thank you for posting the pictures.

Re: Type 1 Single Six list
Hi Guys, Here are a couple tid-bits of Ruger lore for your amusement. in the mid 1970s I purchased RSS #26 & 27 from a Florida dealer at the Houston Gun Show. A few years later #26 along with a dozen more Ruger SA were stolen from me. Well, fast forward to 2008 or so I discovered that 7 of the g...
