Quote HistoryQuoted: I'm currently on the hunt for a Bisley 44 mag, a pre-lock 4" 686/586, and a 4 inch model 65. I'm going to hit a gun show next weekend and hopefully find one off the list. I could bid on gunbroker, but I sure like to prowl around locally and see what I can scrounge up. I had my Estimated OTD price will be a grand.

Quote HistoryQuoted: that was the first revolver I ever bought, it sat in the gun case for weeks at $225 back around 2010. I finally bought it as a trainer, since I had no revolver. It's in 98% condition. the cylinder release latch sticks hard if it sits for a while. Takes two thumbs to get it to pop free, then it's fine for a few days. I don't know why. Could be old grease. I've heard that it can get hard and stick after a couple decades. |

Loaded up a few test loads today to see how they'd do out of the short guns. 158gr swc over 6.0 unique. Did have a little bit of an issue where I had to try and seat the swc ever so slightly deeper because I couldn't get the cylinder to close on the gp100. Anyone else have a Ruger and notice it won't allow a slightly Longer round? Checked for function in the Rossi as well
