Ruger Wrangler .22 LR Black Cerakote Revolver

A: Matthew, it is just as smooth as the larger Bore siblings and is night and day smoother than the Heritage Pistols. Smoother, tighter tolerances gives it a much higher quality feel compared to the Heritage line.

A: Its a better built higher quality gun than the rough rider and its backed by Ruger is a single six no but it is a better choice than the RR

A: Yes as the Frame Material is Aluminum Alloy and won't pass Melting Point Laws.

A: yes it is banned in states with a melting law it is a aluminum alloy

A: they are on the stiff side at 1st it should get easier with use. I recommend Calling ruger and seeing if they can help Telephone: 336-949-5200

A: you may try a little plastic tool to help open it until it loosens up something like these https://www.harborfreight.com/nylon-pry-bar-installer-kit-4-pc-63594.html

A: There really is no returns on firearms purchases, most new guns have some stiff parts and tight tolerances, these usually get smoother with time and use. If it does not, there is a very high demand for firearms so you should have no problem selling it. You can sell on sites like (G)un Br0ker or armslist (armslist is like craigslist for firearms/accessories and let's you find buyers in your area.)

A: Steve, tape a piece of scotch tape to either the moving gate or fixed side the moving gate locks into and close for 24 to 48 hours. Remove the tape, slightly oil and try again. You may or may not need to add tape to both sides depending on the results. This helped me. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Tom, not without extensive rework Sir. You'd have to redesign the entire linkage system and swap other major components.The cost would far outweigh the original firearm.

A: Best bet would be to buy another revolver that is DA as it would need to be done by a gunsmith and cost more than it would be to buy a DA revolver
