Bought a new Ruger NMB .44 Special today.....
....it's all Woody's fault, I was picking up an FFL and this pistol forced itself on me.

Kind of a nice piece, blued, 4 5/8 barrel, handles well but has a really odd trigger. Not too heavy, maybe 4 pounds but has so much creep it's kind of like shooting double action, but breaks clean. Odd, but I kind of like it. At least until I shoot it. I've never run into one quite like this before, and I've shot a lot of triggers.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

That trigger is easily fixed if you know how. Just leave the springs alone !!!

Well? You should know by now how you like it or not. Any recommendation? Thinking of buying one of these myself. Can't decide on the reg. blackhawk on the 357 frame or the 4 5/8 bisley.

I favor the Bisley over the plow handle, by a big margin.

This is all Gato's fault. He's held us in such suspense for the last nine months waiting for a shooting report. Felt like I'd been put in a round room and told to go pee in the corner. Couldn't hold it forever ya know. 4 5/8" bisley should be in at the end of the week!! (I hope) J
