I purchased this 6 shot revolver and it was used and I was told it will not chamber some types of ammo.
I was even told if I did not like it the seller would give me my money back.
Awesome.
Well I went to my buddies land and set up some paper to shoot at and I could not get any ammo to chamber.
I had CCI, Federal and Winchester in a few different types.
I pulled the cylinder and looked at it really good in the sun and found the firing pin hits high on the rim.
Well it is a rim fire but this will mush the rim to a well out of round state.
No worries about light strikes.
Now looking at this cylinder in my hands I see what looks like the firing pin was hitting the cylinder chamber without any ammo in the chamber.
That dinked the chamber where the ammo would be inserted and this little tit from mushed steel was sticking into the chamber not allowing the ammo to chamber.
Luckily I had my tool box and I had a chain saw file (Round) in there and I lightly filed that little spot back to round.
Now all ammo chambered.
Time to shoot it.
This little revolver shot all the different kinds of ammo and as always some will be more accurate than others but this thick barrel Ruger
made it very hard to find out which one was more accurate. It was grouping most ammo about the same.
No adjustable sights just a channel in the rear and a blade in the front.
Once you figure out what height to set the front blade at this thing will hit the target.
Left and right was almost always spot on.
Sometimes at 30-40 yards you would be 1" or 2" left or right of a tin can if you held good.
I sure like this the accuracy of this better than the Rough Rider I had.
I sell things that are not accurate enough for me and this one will stay in the family.
5 people shot this little 6 shooter yesterday and all of them loved it and a couple wanted to buy it.
You will need to put some rounds down range on paper to get used to the sights but once you figure that out you can start busting cans with it pretty regular.
At least we all did.
Zero misfires.
The dink on the cylinder mouth I really feel was from dry firing this revolver so if you have one DO NOT DRY FIRE IT.
If you have one that has hard to chamber issues I would suggest a bright light and inspection and possibly a light hand with a round file to cure it if yours is dinked.
