  1. Correct, Blued or Chromed.  MSRP of the blued Steel Master was $3048 when it came out, Chrome was $500 more,  I bought my Chromed Steel Master new (which I love) for a little over $3000 in 2012.  Take a look at this Enos ad from March for a blued Steel Master.    A quick search on the web shows that $2600-$2700 is NIB listed price for the blued (of course no one has one in stock, so take that with a grain of salt) , check grabagun.com,  whichgun.com, armslist.com.  I would say the $2500 for a used chromed is not out of the question, the thing to do since this is local to you, check it out in person, offer him $2000 and see what he counters at.  

     

     

  2. From your owner's manual:

    The RUGER®LCR has a transfer bar which is connected directly to the
    trigger. The transfer bar safety system provides that the hammer blow can be
    transmitted to the firing pin only when the trigger is pulled all the way to the
    rear. This is a positive internal safety feature. NOTE: The transfer bar is allowed
    some movement within the fire control mechanism so that the trigger pull is not
    affected. Due to this necessary “play” in the transfer bar, a shooter will
    sometimes hear the transfer bar “rattle” when the revolver is shaken. This rattle
    caused by the play in the transfer bar is completely normal in the LCR

    That is cheating sarge, as my wife tells me, men never read the manual. We needed to discuss this to death and call Ruger before finding out the reason. Mine does not have that rattle since it has a Zev like trigger installed. I like my Ruger LCP though.

  3. If I could buy another Tanfoglio, it would be a Stock 3 and then I would get a used limited .40 slide so that I can do production and limited with the same frame. OP, you could just get a large frame Stock 3 in .40 and then get a 10mm 4.75" barrel and some K10 mags if you wanted to go the cheap route.

    Buy another?, do you have one now, if so, which one? I do like the Stock 3, just wondering about the action. There has to be some internals that are different between the Elite Limited and the the Stock 3. The safety looks different, triggers is a little different. Thinking that heavier looking front end of the stock 3 would be nice with the 10mm cartridge.

  4. Downside of a 35 with 9mm barrel is that its not production legal with the conversion barrel.

    Keep forgetting to think USPSA. I just like options and it works well in 3Gun.

  5. I am a Glock guy with a G20 (10mm) and love it, but I have seen and shot some nice Tanfoglios in 40 and was thinking about getting a Tanfoglio in 10mm but I am a little confused about the models, other than the price and some of the looks, are the Elite Limited guns that much better than the Hunter or the Pro? There are some obvious trigger differences, just not sure if I can go with the Hunter and happy with the action. I like the Custom and Special models, but that is getting into the STI Perfect 10 price range.

  6. I think this is has been answered well, already but my vote is G35 and get a 9mm aftermarket barrel, than you have a nice 40 option! And I am not just saying that because its what I did. :roflol::cheers:

  7. I have seen a broken Zev before, but that was shot by a instructor, so lots of bullets down range, for the rest of us, I think it will be fine. I have been using small rifle primers because I found them before small pistol and have not had any problems.

  8. Nice job, all I have done with mine is add the Zev trigger and a fiber front sight. I need to add a magwell, any suggestions?

  9. Shooting G24, G35, G37 most of the time. I have a 9mm barrel for the G35 and use that for 3Gun shooting. I did buy a G41 but actually have not shot it yet. Dropped a Zev trigger in the G35 and added fiber. Also have a G31, I like the 357 SIG round.

  10. Another very pleasant load is Zero 230gr FMJ bullet, with 4.9gr of Power Pistol - shoots softly at 700fps.

    Old post but thought I would ping you about your G37. I have also dusted off the gun and want to shoot it again. I bought one just to shoot at a Glock shoot and try to win another gun. Did not work, but I did loan it to a buddy who was going to another state to shoot a match and back then you got an extra chance at winning something and he did with my gun. Did he give me anything, NO, not even a T-Shirt. I bought 500 cases from Starline, so thought it was time to put them to use.
