Re: Therapy

Ah yes ... Therapy! Went out this past Friday to the range. Took my beloved Sig 226, Walther PPK/S and ... my Ruger Mk. II. As always, the Sig shot lights out! Wolf ammo is supposed to be lower quality, but in that Sig it sure shines. Next I lit up the Walther. I know it kicks. I know it also can bi...

Need Help 2.0

Well, I "sorta" need help. Maybe. I don't know. That's why I'm turning to the ROCS brain trust. Way back on 3/4/23, I had an issue w/ my OM .357 SA. Hammer followed down after cocking w/o me pulling trigger. For some reason, it sorted itself out. Thought it might have been a bit of trash, ...

Re: Need Help

I am thrilled that it is back to working order. Now I have time to buy correct screw drivers and do some reading and watching of Youtube videos so that I can avoid a lot of foolish errors when I sit down a install the three screw lockwork set that I have waiting in a little brown paper envelope. Sin...

Re: Need Help

There's a saying... If you can't be good, best be lucky! I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am only a fair to middling fixer of firearms. Mostly I can replace parts, etc. But, I must still be able to channel the spirit of Ruger b/c some how or other, I managed to get my Ruger SA straightened o...

Re: Need Help

For more years that I care to remember, I've wanted a nice OM Ruger BH, however when I had enough money, I couldn't find a nice revolver and, when I didn't have the money it seemed like deals came along that I had to pass up. When the hammer went down w/o the trigger being pulled, I was worried that...

Need Help

Rain was pouring this morning. I was sitting around playing w/ my Ruger OM SA. Converted to the new lock work. That's the way I bought it. Beautiful little .38/.357 SA revolver. Went to cock the revolver in the normal way. Hammer fell w/o me pulling the trigger. Anyone have any ideas about what to d...

Re: Well Shazam!!!

Re: Range time. Oh well, the best laid plans of mice and men sometimes go awry. You can say that again. Got a call about 11:30 AM asking if I could help the Kiwanis with unloading trucks of food. We have a storm rolling in so we had to get everything unloaded ASAP. Finished up about 3:30 PM. Walked ...
