What is going on everybody welcome back to The Shooters Apprentice Podcast!

In this episode of The Shooter’s Apprentice Podcast we take a look at the Belt Mountain base pins for Ruger single-action revolvers make by Skinner Sights, what they are, why they exist, and whether they’re worth your money or just another shiny distraction.

We’ll talk about why the factory base pin can become a weak point under heavy recoil, how base pin walk affects reliability, and why serious revolver shooters, hunters, handloaders, and hard-use field guys often upgrade this one small component before anything else.

Sometimes the difference between a revolver that’s “fine at the range” and one you trust in the field comes down to a single piece of steel you never think about until it fails.

We also talk about the budget Arasaka project and a few other things we have going on at the shop like bullet casting.
