  1. I don't know about "big", but maybe realistic. How about an L frame, Scandium (lite), 10 short 22lr, maybe Aluminum or Titanium cylinder (dream big ?), with a sleeved (327 like) barrel, 6inch. They've made a 386, I'm sure they could re-use that.
  2. Does anyone know (yet) if the twin sear parts of the newly introduced GTS, which has the frame mounted safety that also works as a decocker, can be installed on the 92x Performance.
  3. These are some of the lyrics I guess it's supposed to be an homage to Jerry. "Twista Miculek, I'm fully in effect, I break a record When I get the revolver, 8 shots in a second Like Jerry, I bury opponents when kickin' the rhymes 6 shots, reload, repeat, now what's the time? Twista Miculek, I'm fully in effect, I break a record When I get the revolver, 8 shots in a second He shoot, I spit at 2.99 Seconds and we got the competition falling behind"
  4. Part2 (The Training) came out last week, it looks like a 327 TRR8 in 9mm, the record attempt would be in October, that's what Jerry says in the video.
  5. What grips are these, I like the that it covers the backstrap.
  6. I’m jumping way ahead but maybe a scandium frame titanium cylinder 10shot 22lr would be the next “season” of The Record.
  7. You sir, are an amazing inspiration. Just a humble suggestion, you're doing just great with your halo bolt racker. Have you tried the Power Custom or Midwest Industries bolt racker ? Maybe you can use your belt or a table with these. Maybe it's easier on your left hand too, than the "ring" on the halo.
  8. Todd is pretty active on Facebook, maybe try to send him an IM there. Tell him that we're looking on this website for his feedback too
  9. The Browning SA-22 is "tube fed", but the tube is in the stock and the "loading gate/port" is on the side of the stock, right ?
  10. Anyone here see this yet ? Any news/info ? I'm sure TGO knows a thing or two I saw it on a Facebook post by The Shooter's Mindset
  11. https://fb.me/e/1nftRRsib You can look for it on Practiscore too.
  12. June 3-5 Michigan State Steel Challenge at South Kent Sportsman's club, Dorr, MI. Last year, we had over $10,000 on the prize table.
  13. 10-shot Scandium X-Frame with 38SC/9mm titanium cylinder could be close to a 627/929 weight, no ? while we're discussing in the vicinity of 627s, 327s.
  14. Not to hijack the thread, but this one is interesting too. Does anyone know the details ? All it says on the post is that a Japanese shooter used it back in 1991 and returned with it. Credit: Steel Challenge Facebook group. Edit: A comment on the post a couple of pages below shows this revolver and says "Former Gun photographer Ichiro Nagata designed this gun in early 90’"
  15. I'm sure you know, the serial# is printed on that side
  16. Do you need buyers to sign up and maybe put down a deposit so you have a clear quantity of "first batch" to build ? I'm sure you'll get a decent bunch of us to do that.
  17. I wonder if the trigger mechanism can be modified to kind of a "short stroke" system to reduce the trigger pull length, like they do with maybe a Colt SAA or Winchester lever gun and clones where the geometry of the parts is modified such that they work the action with a shorter arc of movement for the shooter. I may not be saying it right, but you know what I'm referring to. I hope someone comes up with one for the Ruger (and/or S&W), or maybe they already did and my google foo didn't bring it up. Surely, I can't be the first one to think of something like this.
  18. If one's shooting style is to release the trigger finger all the way (I know, amateur rookie) then that wouldn't be a factor, right? I have a GP100-22lr and a S&W 617 and I don't feel the trigger travel is that different, except for weight of course. I shot the GP100-22lr in a rimfire match and the very tip of my trigger finger was bruised from hitting the sharp(er) edge of the Ruger trigger guard where it meets the frame by the grip, I do need to check my grip and trigger pull technique.
  19. DS10 speed loaders are the other option. https://ds10speed.wordpress.com/ Dave is a great guy too. The good thing about revolvers is that the ammo doesn't have to cycle the action so more ammo works well in revolvers than in semi-autos.
  20. On Michael Bane's Shooting Gallery, David Olhasso had a 9mm Super GP100 with "his own" extended cylinder release. I wonder if Ruger will make it an official accessory. His was more of a hook rising up a bit.
  21. I first want to say that I may have inadvertently violated forum rules by posting a website of a vendor. I am in NO WAY connected to that website/vendor. I've sent a note to the mods asking for forgiveness already. My intention was to purely suggest a way to lighten the chassis. Having said that, the silver thing is a non acoustic timer according to that website. They're a company out of Germany.
  22. If that ModShot chassis is "Swiss cheesed", maybe it'll save some weight ? no ? Kind of like this.
  23. Thank you for the offer, I will have to take a rain check. I wish I was going, I don't shoot at anything beyond local club matches yet. Hopefully some day
  24. Would you please post more picture of this It looks too good for just "spy shots"
