I used to have a Hi Standard Double Nine, 5.5" bbl. I think they are out there on the used-gun market.

Anybody heard any more juicy rumors about this?

I found this picture on the rugerforum. Looks a bit odd and even slightly bulky with the standard Ruger ears and the tall front sight but it'd still be a nice little piece.

Pretty sure that's John in the picture. He's kind of a large fellow with big hands, and the Shootist's badge with the name "John" on it would lend credence to that as well wink. With the table in the background it looks like someone snapped a pic on the down low at a banquet or dinner of some kind.

John Taffin posted it will be ready in a month!

Jason at Lipseys said "Stay tuned guys....." I figure it will be announced at SHOT

Very COOL, Marlin!
Thanks for posting the update! I'll be hounding the salesman at Lipsey's in the New Year.

The one here shoots so well as is, I am not sure I would want to change the sights if available.

A Bearcat with adjustable sights will sell very well, is my guess.
