Hey guys, Have been out at the Shootists Holiday and trying to get caught up. The delays have been due to the wood situation. Trust me, Ruger is working hard to make this happen sooner than later.

Cholo, This is a special run for Cabelas. Baron Technology did the finish work. They do a lot of finish work for special projects for Ruger and just about everyone else. They are factory authorized and you can tell because they have their own factory part number. SR1911CMDHP. HP is for High...

I think the 480 suffered from the same problem as the 327 Federal. Great cartridge that does fit a role but was never put in the right gun. 327 didn't really shine or sell for that matter until it was put in the Single Six size platform. The 480 is a cartridge that has a lot of appeal and...

I believe it ended being 595 guns. Wish they would still do this one for us. By far my favorite DA revolver we ever did.

We have ideas being kicked around. If I get what I really want, I think most people will be happy!

Swamper, I will keep that one in mind. Would make for a nice looking sixgun. Jason

My first big bore handgun was a 41 Magnum Blackhawk. I have always been a fan of the round. It has been discussed, but a few other projects are taking precedent right now over working on the feasibility of a mid size Flattop 41 Magnum. I feel confident it will work fine, but would most likely...

Felix, Ruger sells all their guns through their 16 distributors. They do no direct sales to consumers or dealers. If you buy a new Ruger firearm it has gone through a distributor. So nothing has really changed on how Ruger "markets" their Number 1's other than they are using one distributor...

Felix, We just post MSRP on our consumer side of our website. Dealer cost on Number 1's has been over $1000 for a couple of years now, so if you have been buying them at $1000 you have a dealer that doesn't make any money on Number 1's or have bought a close out. MSRP on 2014 guns was $1449...

I've always wanted to do a 3 cylinder model 10mm / 40 S&W / 38-40. Maybe one day.

They are coming. Our photographer has been out. I will try to get some temporary pics up asap.

Its looking like it will be stainless Ross. There aren't any set qty's since we will just make what the market bears on the standard "cataloged" items.

We have some 5-1/2" Single Sevens in stock. Not many but 31 as of this morning.

We will be announcing 4 new Flattop models tomorrow. 357 Magnum / 9mm mid-frame size convertibles in both blue and stainless. Your choice of 4-5/8" or 5-1/2" barrels. All four models will have slim rosewood grips. Other than the small run of Acusport large frame Bisleys, these are the only...

We do appreciate all the feedback. Makes me feel good when one of our guns becomes a family heirloom for many generations to enjoy. We need more guys like Justin in this Country!
