The 3rd screw on the left is for a cylinder latch block of some sort? The more I look at custom Ruger BH's, the more I like big long cylinders that fill the frame window. Subtle, but like a set of fitted grips, finishes the look of a fine revolver.

Subtle, but like a set of fitted grips, finishes the look of a fine revolver. Yep, that's a bolt bearing block. Maybe Bushog will chime in here about why the screw is external. It's my understanding that Bowen etc have moved away from the external screw (for aesthetics, functionally it's just as good SFAIK). I think the external screw in addition to slotting the pins is a neat look. Guns that use a hex screw in the external block don't look nearly so nice, but Bushog's arrangement is classy. Is the hammer carbon or stainless? Can't tell with those colors and with people CCHing stainless now. The chambers are standard 41 mag, not 414 cut down I assume? |

I assumed it was a bolt bearing block (it just about had to be) but I haven't seen it having been secured externally before. I personally don't think I detracts from the looks in the least. I know what it does and can see how it helps with the heavy calibers, but is it necessary for lighter recoiling calibers? I tend to over engineer things because I only want to send a gun off once.
Sorry for the off topic question, but I don't think it detracts from the fine revolver being discussed.
Thanks,

Some smiths will tell you that unless you're going to a 5-shot conversion that the bolt bearing block is not necessary. At least that is what a couple have told me. Having said that, it certainly wouldn't hurt to have it.

Installing and fitting the bolt bearing block and trigger pivot spacer (plus a fitted over size base pin in line reamed holes) is done to insure tight, accurate cylinder lock up (along with line boring the cylinder). It is not lost on lighter recoiling calibers. It's all about precision. |
