Had a chance to re-look some Rugers at the Fast Draw Competion Sunday. Nice revolvers,and not one even came close to being as loose as the one I described that I looked at in the gunshop. I just don't know the reason a NIB Ruger would be that loose. I have to admit, all my 'experience' with Rugers has been in my previous life in Blackhawks,,etc..and not their Cowboy revolvers. But the revolvers I handled and examined Sunday were niceee...really niceee. Now, the symantics of a Ruger vrs a Colt would take some 'mental' getting used to..but,,,I can see it being an improvment actually. Just different.
So, we'll see. I mite go ahead with the Rodeo since I've wanted one for a long time..but who knows..there might be a Ruger in the future if the money presents itself. Having taken a close look,,I was much more impressed with Rugers second glance around.
And remember...
Guns do not kill people,,,husbands that come home from work early kill people.
