BarryinIN Posted December 4, 2016 Report Posted December 4, 2016 It's only that- rumor- but those spreading it say to get ready because it's coming soon. The rumor inside the rumor is around a 3" barrel. My guess is if Ruger has waited this late in the year, they will wait until SHOT. I love the .44 Spl, but am covered pretty well in that area. I'd sure like to see it, though. While talking revolvers this size... I think it would be neat if they, or someone, would get with an ammo company and legitimize the wildcat .41 Special. Get SAAMI to fix a case length and pressure, and chamber a couple of guns for it like the GP100. It's been needed since 1964. Quote
BarryinIN Posted December 18, 2016 Author Report Posted December 18, 2016 In case you missed it, it's happened. The GP-44 is supposed to be shipping in the next week or so. If Photobucket wasn't screwed up, I'd post a nice picture from Jeff Quinn (Gunblast). 3" barrel. Adjustable rear sight, green fiber optic front. Also (probably) coming from Ruger is an 8-round .357 Mag Redhawk. Quote

BarryinIN Posted December 20, 2016 Author Report Posted December 20, 2016 I need to read that one. I just read this one today: https://www.americanrifleman.org/articles/2016/12/19/tested-ruger-gp100-44-special-revolver/ Quote
BarryinIN Posted December 24, 2016 Author Report Posted December 24, 2016 Look what just appeared on the S&W website. The model 69 in a 2.75" barrel version. https://www.smith-wesson.com/firearms/model-69-combat-magnum Quote
