I've shot SASS matches for over a decade. In tens of thousands of rounds, I've never had a SA Ruger fail in any way. Routine cleaning, never even a loose screw to tighten.

Colt SAAs & clones, also tens of thousands of rounds. Same reliability, occasionally need to tighten a screw.

S&W N frames in ICORE, speed steel, target work over several decades....never any FTF issues.

Took the bottom feeders from 4 major brands out for a little exercise about 6 months ago.

They quickly reminded me why they stayed home most of the time....
