Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Christmas Gift...

The single action is a hair over 4# with a bit of creep that I will mostly remove. I suspect the double action is around 10# given where the needle lands on my 8# scale. It is pretty smooth though (better after a fair bit of dry firing) and allows a halt along the way to get the sights right before 1/8" or so of pretty clean pull fires it. I have some Wolf springs coming and I will tear it down, stone a bit of hammer away and polish the rest. These supposedly come from Ruger with some action cleanup done and shimmed hammer and trigger.

I'm really liking mine. I kept the stock grips on it, as they fit my hand as well as or better than any other handgun I've tried. Quite comfortable for me when shooting the Underwood 220gr @1200fps load. Frankly, I have no plans to change anything on it. I'm just happily shooting it the way it is. The polishing job could have been done a little better in places - but this is a working piece that will likely get scratched up anyway, so...meh.

BTW - zero creep in SA mode with mine. DA is pretty smooth, but my trigger scale only goes up to nine.

I agree with the grips feeling really nice in the hand. With the wet weather today (my range is closed Mon/Tues) and with what appears that I forgot that takes me out of town tomorrow through Saturday (all nice weather days...) my first shot out with it will next week... The action is smoothing well with more dry firing for sure.
