I was reading a current thread by Analogkid about which 45 Colt SSA to buy/not buy and someone brought up " the well known problem of the Ruger SA thread choke". I have one with that exact problem.
Is it in fact that well known? I thought it was just my 1973 .357 Blackhawk. But it seems, like diseases, it now has its own disease name.
If it is that big a problem, shouldn't the manufacturer correct it or, at least state the gun is not suitable for use with lead boolits?
And what about current production, do they also still suffer from this disease?
I'm tiring to firelap out with limited success. AND currently working with Ruger to resolve the issue- which isn't productive yet.
Any comments appreciated?
