Ruger Old Army - The Best Percussion Revolver Ever?

InRange is supported by viewers like you: The Ruger Old Army was introduced in 1972, 100 years after Colt stopped manufacturing the 1860. Is it the best percussion revolver of all time? Let’s discuss. Errata: It appears per the comments that Ruger may have made stainless models before 1982. I acquired this information from Ruger themselves, however, so it’s a little confusing: “*Blued Old Army Serial Numbers roll marked with Stainless Old Army Revolvers beginning in 1982.“ Oops? Maybe. Dunno. Not *that important* but here’s a correction if so.
