    checking "hammerless" lock-up?

    I was checking out a used LCR today. When i checked for lock up, the only way i could think to do it was to dry fire and hold the trigger back and check for any excess wiggle and the alignment. Just wondering if my thinking is right.

    Ruger survey questions

    I got one of those e-mail surveys the other day and one of the questions was "would you like to see the mini-14 in a different caliber". This made me think of a question I've wondered about before. Why don't they make it in .30 carbine? Is there a patent issue? Or just not a market for it?

    I bought a SP101 a couple of weeks ago and finally got a chance to shoot it. First 2 rounds did fine but on the 3rd the hammer stuck forward (wouldn't let me pull trigger double action).

    121 gr HAP help

    I've been given some Hornady HAP 121 gr 9mm (.356) bullets. Can't seem to find any load data on them. Anyone ever load these? Profile is the same as the XTP. I'm thinking the 124 gr XTP data might work.
