Been looking for a Ruger "Old Army" to shoot. Finally found one on "Gunbroker"
Bid and won. Cost 325.00. Put a trigger stop on it, and a trigger shoe. Got
the new grips in today. The owner says it's been shot about 30 times.
She's a beaut. I prefer the more traditional looking pistols, but that's got my mouth watering like a plate full of Fried Tofu with peanut vegetables... not very relateable. But you get my point.

Mine's a stainless steel version and came with a wide target trigger. I haven't done a trigger stop yet but I replaced the stock trigger rebound spring with a much less stiff cut down spring out of a ball point pen. This noticably lightens the trigger pull, doesn't get rid of the creep though.
A lot of competition shooters have the hammer swiss cheesed for lower weight and faster lock time also.
