Ruger #1

Post by John »

Was wondering if any one here has tried to put a 22 long rifle barrel on a Ruger #1. I almost have one done by putting the bore off center at the chamber end, still have the extractor to make. I should have thought about the extractor first, I put the chamber at 12 oclock. It would have been beter to put it at 9 oclock. So far everything is working fine, it goes bang. Hammer blow is a little heavy and I may want to go to a flat firing pin. I read a long time ago about someone changing the length of the link that moves the breach block but the costomer prefered this method.
