Re: Tale about a notched grip Ruger SA

Affirmed. I have treated numerous people perforated by multiple 9 mm rounds to see them on the street in a couple of weeks. I have had several single shots from .22s, some self inflicted, that were DRT. The most remarkable one was a guy shot in the left cheek (aft facing below the belt cheek) and laid dead in the street. An exam showed massive dependent lividity (discoloration due to blood pooling) in the abdomen. We surmised and were later proven right by post mortem that the bullet had "ricocheted" off of the pelvis and piffed his innards.

Added in Edit: I have my dad's old single Six, absolutely love it. He bought it around '71-'72 IIRC, it has the hammer block...and no notches :mrgreen:
