Incessantly fueling an argument for a .45 GP that will not happen is not "discussion", it's obsession.
It doesn't matter what numbers you crunch yourself or what Taurus has done.
It simply will not be done by Ruger.
This has reached the same level as the obsession displayed by the "But....Colt COULD build a Python again, I just know it, I feel it in my bones, why won't they, PLEASE Colt- build me a Python because I do truly want it so badly" people.
Colt can't make a Python profitable.
Ruger can't make a .45 GP profitable.
Buying new frame molds, adapting CNC programs, doing the necessary R&D to create what would be a new GP frame, all for a very low number of people who'd actually buy the result, would not be worth the effort.
