What time is it? 625 JM standard time.

[Elk Creek]

While I was doing paperwork for the 32-20 Low wall I had to wait, so naturally I was scanning the cases. Then I spot a tag 625-8JM! Wait that’s a 45 acp! Me being me asked to see it and sure enough I had to have it. A week in purgatory, a trip to see Dan and it was a done deal. I did get to shoot it before I bought it, shoots good. 6 rounds 10 yards double action. That single action is SA-wheat! I need to stop going to gun stores.

[Elk Creek]

You notice in the shooting picture I shot it without moon clips with my reloads.

[mitdr774]

That has to be a lot of fun to shoot.

I think my moon clip loader is from the same place. I doubt you will really need to worry about the moon clips in any book safe .45 load though.

There is a wonderful satisfaction in the metallic “thunk” when a moon clip slides home.

Now they just need to invent a way to make them “Ping” when they eject

Not nearly so wonderful as the "thunk" of UPS dropping off a box of Starline .45 Auto Rim brass so you no longer have to fudge with the damned things!

I scratched the .45 ACP revolver itch with a CA Bulldog and Ruger Redhawk. And was gravely underwhelmed.
Nice gun, though. As usual.

I have plenty of clips and BUCKETS of 45acp cases. Literally buckets.

The Charter Arms is hardly the standard to measure all handguns against. I had one that was mechanical disaster….to the point they gave me a new one, it was sold.

Completely agree. So, what about the Ruger?

[Zee]

Dude. I’m messing with you. I love all guns that serve a purpose and make you smile. Shoot. Smile. Enjoy.

Auto round in a revolver are stupid. But, they make you smile.

Every now and then Ruger just makes a disaster…. QA isn’t what it once was. Cheaper to have an adequate service department than a good QA department.

All rounds matter!

Thats why we have $500 23 round plastic semi autos with red dots.

This! I don’t mind the clips and have a ton of them but I’m a BIG fan of the .45AR

I wont argue against that statement.

I have two Rugers that "require" the use of moon clips. They function just fine without them. It would be amusing if someone offered a 10mm Auto Rim case though.

[GrapeApe]

Nice score E.C.

[JunkCollector]

Very nice
Have fun out there.

I may have to get some of those cases….

That would be cool! I emailed Ruger years back suggesting they make a 41 Ruger special. A 38special length shooting 180’s and 200’s a moderate velocity. They obviously haven’t acted yet. That in a lcr would be awesome
