Maybe just unlucky.

For the price it is a good value if you get a good one. I can barely get my loading gate open. It is so hard to get open it literally hurts my thumb and the hammer strenght is the times that of the Ruger Single Six. I had expected it to be a little lower quality for $200, but i never expected it be a fight to load. I was thinking maybe I'm just unlucky but I have read other had the same issues I did. The accuracy is half that of a heritage. 18 rounds and it was allover the target. My single a six will cut holes. I called ruger and I have to send it back but there is a 6-8 week minimum wait time and that's if the postal service doesn't lose it or it get stolen. So it is just in a drawer in the box collecting dust.
