Re: Warning!! Dangerous design flaw in the 2006 Jeep Wranglers!!
Hi Frank,
I still use a 44 single action: http://www.----------.com/44_22.jpg
Not cap and ball of course. It's my 45 that's double action:

My Ruger Single Action was in .45 Long Colt. Traded off a while back.
Wish I hadn't, but it was costing a buck around to shoot at the time and
a box of ammo was dinner and drinks for two back then. :-(

True enough, but I think that in the case of the OP that understanding
that sometimes things _do_ break even when new, learning to be prepared,
and understanding that everything that goes wrong need not be someone
else's fault would help too.

The part that scared me was his electing to drive knowing that his
narcolepsy would catch up to him on the road. I wouldn't want to be an
on-coming driver.
