Re: Banned from Ruger forum

Guys, this whole topic is getting too much traffic and sounds like that forum has little to offer Ruger Collectors? Brass Frame/Lee

Re: So Plum its Raspberry?

Read the books! John Dougan does a great job of describing the problem in some early Rugers. Troy is correct, some cylinder frames exhibit variations of plum color. I have a BKH30 with a complete copper colored cylinder frame and a collection of BKH3's that show the color. I also wrote an article in...

Re: MR-3DB Article in ROCS Digest and “A” marking in place of MR-3DB – Genuine Frame

Thank you Jim. Do you remember casting the Brass Frames for the New Model Rugers? Do you know the meaning of the capital A on some of these cast frames? Lee Sundermeier

Re: MR-3DB Article in ROCS Digest and “A” marking in place of MR-3DB – Genuine Frame

Look at the ROCS summer Report from 2023. This is a full pictorial publication of my "Class of Brass" display at the NRA Spring, 2023 gun show. I now own 5 New Model prototype Brass Grip Frames in different stages of production. Two brass frames contain the letter "A" as you disc...

The ROCS Summer Report for 2023 has a complete pictorial review of my display with experimental brass frames.

Re: Seach function ROCS journals

First I would point out that ROCS publishes a DIGEST, the RCA publishes a JOURNAL. If you check the ROCS web page we have posted the first issue. I am the Editor of the Digest and struggle to receive enough articles from our members to publish our twice/year issues? I need a volunteer who is knowled...

Re: Ruger MR-3DB Brass Old Model Grip Frame

Troy, you make a great point, but my collection of 4 new model and 5 old model brass frames is enough! They are all in different stages of completion, needed to fit their respective revolvers. Brass Frame/Lee

Re: Question on selling multiple Ruger forum sites

It somewhat depends 0n what you are selling (Old Model Single Actions or New Model), long guns or pistols? If they are truly collectables, you probably have a larger audience on the ROCS Forum. If you want a larger audience for more common Rugers, I suspect the .com locations have more "lookers...
