For those interested, 23979 just showed up on Gunbroker . . .

I'll note this in the appropriate classified section as well. Just thought the serious .44 guys might see it here.

Here are some that I have crossed paths with that are not already on the list. Three of these are consecutive (c) to ones already on the list.

18709 - (c) Sold this, the barrel was cut to 6-7/8" and had the ugliest plastic grips I'd ever seen
20917 - (c) I'd like to talk to whoever has 20918
21112 - Sold this one to a forum member
21149 - Saw for sale locally, was about 60% finish
21309 - (c) For sale now in the Classifieds
23408 - Saw at auction, had a red front sight insert, grip frame was stripped bare
23939 - Saw at auction, factory reblue, bought by a forum member, he returned it

Mike:
Looks like 17150 is the new low number for a regular production BKH40... shipped 8/59 with a bunch of others in that first shipping.
So the numbered frame must have sat there for a little bit and finally came through the process for its barrel... just happened to be a 10" tube.
