Finally picked up a ruger redhawk in 45colt/acp. Had hear about a number of issues including poor ignition, poor accuracy and poor overall quality. But I really liked this revolver and the versatility.
When chambering the 45 colt I was unable to get a cartridge into one of the cylinders. A closer examination showed the ejector was partially blocking the cylinder. When I looked even further I noticed the cylinder was oddly cut to support the ejector. It is symetically so not sure if it is by design but looks like a poorly cut cylinder and I know the ejectors is poorly cut.
Posting pics for feed back. You can see a black mark where I marked the bad chamber. Just to the left the cut in the cylinder for the ejector is not square where as the chamber to the right the cut is perfectly square. There are two chambers that look like the left one and they are opposing. The other 4 chambers have cuts like the one on the right.
