It may not take long for Ronnie Wells to fill two barrels with brass cuttings as he launches into this important development. I was told they had two barrels of brass grip frames on hand when Bill Ruger pulled the plug. Complaints of casting imperfections irritated Bill Ruger. Ruger stopped offering a brass Super Blackhawk grip frame when its Peacemaker action was still in production. My argument slanted to eliminate recoil to the base of thumb. Years ago, I tried to interest Ruger in an alternative single action frame configuration for the Redhawk it barely evoked a yawn. Doubt anyone would want a grip-spike arrangement on a single action, drastically altering the classic “full tang” aesthetic not to mention balance. As Lee Martin and I jawboned last night, sharing dope on wind drift, the pull of sunlight on POI ( sun high, shots high, etc.), and spin drift, Lee described remarkable work by Ronnie Wells to provide the Ruger single action more grip options through programmed milling of solid brass.
