Tokarev Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I didn't see this previously mentioned so I figured I'd post the link. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSemkXSuIigLa1qwAmuQVH8AIZbQ-x0wG58fDkYIKM3vbzwhBA/viewform Ruger has a similar survey for IDPA. I haven't seen one for USPSA. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatJones Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I can't be convinced that a Ruger can be tuned as light as a Smith with Ruger's coiled hammer springs.I filled out the Ruger ICORE survey, but unless they come out with a 10 round 32 Magnum I can't imagine I'd ever shoot one.

Distant Thunder Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 A little competition certainly couldn't hurt. At the very least maybe it'll make S&W increase the quality of their products. It otta be fun to watch the outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchapman Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Wait until you see Ruger's new shooting team, I think that we might just see a full out run at s&w market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskan454 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Some might be surprised how light you can run a Ruger. I had a Super Redhawk running at 6# DA with Federal primers for a while. The biggest weakness in their design is the cylinder release. I sincerely hope they take these surveys and act on them. Competition amongst manufacturers should be good for all of us.

I've never shot a Ruger on the clock, but the cylinder release has never bothered me. I reload strong hand and the same motion I use on a Smith seems to mash the Ruger release just fine. I could see it being a reach if you don't change hands when you reload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to reload strong hand but eventually switched to WHO. On the Ruger I have an odd way of opening the cylinder but it works for me. I use the weak hand to press the release and my strong hand pointer finger to push the cylinder out. If all goes well, it's plenty fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwalia Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Just read this older thread. Did the survey or the new team have a say in the new 8rd gp revolver. I think i will wait and here how the run as another 8rd revolver was in my plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things are indestructible though, you probably wouldn't need to replace one anytime soon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
