Thanks, many of those I don't own anymore but I keep the pictures around as reminders. One nice thing about Rugers is that they tend to be more affordable than S&W's or Colts, particularly on the used market, so I've been able to try out quite a few in order to find out what I like and don't like.

Those punch bullets just make that picture! Great revolver too. The 480 Ruger is, to my mind, a truly underrated cartridge.

Bite your tongue. There is no bigger boat anchor than an X-frame.

Very cool. Is that a recent Linebaugh build or an older one?

My pair of Bisley 44s. One a trimmed Hunter the other a Lipseys gun.

I ended up having to replace the front sight and ramp on the short one. The factory had soldered it on both off center and at an angle. I made a one piece front with a brass insert to replace it. Much better now but I don't have a picture.

That cut-down Hunter is pretty cool! Who did the work? Is the front sight still interchangeable?

Yes the front sight still interchanges and I did the work myself. It's cut at 5.5" and handles really well.

A lot of nice pieces showing up here. Looks like single actions outnumber double actions by about three to one.


If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

I like the way you think. I like those K-frame Rugers too.
