It's Finally Here and I want one...

[ECVMatt]

I have been waiting for this gun for quite some time: 5" half-lug .44 SPL GP100 with Roper style grips to boot. Denis has been hinting about this one for a while and it looks like it is finally here:

I just saw it this morning. I am DEFINITELY going to be ordering one. Very excited about those grips too!

 

[Mn Fats]

Half lug and Ropers? Count me in.

 

[ECVMatt]

Skeeter Smiles!

 

[Zaydok Allen]

That's a nice setup! May get added to my list.

Nice! Definitely something Skeeter would be checking out for sure!

Thanks for the heads up!

 

[Riomouse911]

Seeet! That'll be somewhere on my gotta have list...

 

[adcoch1]

That is just....perfect.

 

[If1HitU]

Go to Lipsey's website and look for RUGP4451. Retail price is $810.

 

[farm23]

Thanks.

Nice, going on the list of wants. Wonder if They will come out with this model in 45 Long Colt? Then I would have 2 more guns on the want list.

need to do it in 357, everyone I know wants one. Full lugs on a 357 are like spoilers on front drive cars

Lipsey's has just the gun for you then. Same configuration in either .357 Magnum (RUGP35751 $810), or if you prefer one in .327 Federal Magnum (RUGP32751 $810).

At first I was thinking .44 Special but since I saw it being offered in .327 Magnum I'm starting to think...

 

[buck460XVR]

I wonder why the .44 is the only one offered with unfluted cylinders?

 

[Pelo801]

I like it. The short list is turning into a long list

There was one model of . 357 with an unfluted cylinder but so far, that's it. I think it looks better unfluted.

I'm a tad partial to unfluted cylinders myself, kinda why I noticed in that particular configuration(5" half lug,Roper style grips) that only the .44 was a non-fluted. Just seems a tad odd to me, to have a dealers special in a specific configuration, where there is something that is significantly different, only because of caliber.

 

[strangelittleman]

These are a very handsome run of revolvers...Personally I like the concept of the is in the 7-shot .327mag version (it would make for an excellent outdoors/farm gun). I find the unfluted cylinder of the .44Spl version to be the most aesthetically appealing.

My 44spl. has an unfluted cyl.,



and to be honest, I like of the looks of a fluted better...
