Okay, considering the numbers that I got suggested from my earlier question about "special distributor models" and how many do you need for Ruger to make a special run, would you guys buy a TARGET GREY T514 if somebody got Ruger to make a special run?

Yes, but I would perfer either SS or blue rather than Target Grey.

Still, beggars can't be choosers, and a 514 in ANY finish would be fantastic. I can't believe I sold mine in a fit of economy......

Well Otony, we know that a distributor could sell at least 2! One for you, and one for me. Think we can talk somebody into it? Embarassed

Count us in for at least one. I wouldn't do it in Target Grey either. Blue or stainless would be just fine, or maybe even a two-tone to make it really unique, although a 514 has never been done in a Mark III pistol anyway. Put a nice set of flat 1/2 checkered cocobolo grips on it and I think you'd have a winner with the Target sights and the shorter barrel.

Two-tone YES! Blue on top, stainless on the bottom would be my preference!

OOOHHH yes, The two tone would be an awesome edition.. Have several two tone auto's now... The T514 and a T678 make them opposite each other like the latest mark 3's did in the 4" and 6" Wink
