    We were referring to the trigger pulls being noticeably different. Carrying three screws in the woods wasn't a problem with 5 rounds to me. I carried both and didn't care which one. My favorite woods gun in the 80-90s was a new model 32hr with 4 3/4" barrel.

    I have several unmolested 3 screw Single Six pistols. I load all 6 chambers and have never had a problem with accidental discharge.
    Had a Ruger Maverick, won't be buying another either, that the transfer bar kept getting out of place and keeping it from being cocked and fired. It's a real piece of shit.

    I never noticed anything different at all.
    Had to send my Single Six in to fix timing...very poor accuracy. I was worried about the trigger quality after the mandatory upgrade.
    It came back excellent! Trigger is actually better, and accuracy is outstanding.
    I have a Wrangler that is just as good.

    The only reason in the 70s that I got away from Ruger single actions for my was my affair with contenders. I became addicted and spent all my money on them.

    Im not sure if the maverick is thr same as other rugers but on a typical single action the spring and piston in the end of the base pin is what pushes the transfer bar out of the way asmthe hammer is cocked. the oil on the base pin/piston might have gotten gummy?
