I've purchased 9 SS Taurus rev. handguns over the last four years, including; RG.44mag, RB 454, RB 480, RH, .44 Sil, .17 rev, .22 rev, .22Sil, ? CRS on the last one.....I have had no bad luck with all these guns all work as they should and shoot better than I. I purchased a new Ruger SuperBlackHawk and had to pound out the brass in one of the chambers because of the lack of QC.....had to remove a nick in the chamber which was pressed into the brass when fired. Also have purchased a number of S&W also without any problems....may be we only hear way to often on the bad guns and not enough on the good working ones.........just a friendly thought!!
