Chasing the "D" Flattop 44 matching SN TALO 44s

Dug through the original post to see what was what.. To date looks like 520-22027 and D520-22027 are the only matches. As expected the "D" gun is a 4 5/8 Bisley 44 Special and the match is a stainless 4 5/8 44 Special. To sumarize:

Chad Says:
"There are 31 consecutive "D" guns, all the 4-5/8" Bisley model. Serial numbers run from D520-22027 to D520-22057.
The matching guns are all the TALO 4-5/8" stainless .44 Special flattop."

Held 520-22035 in my hand today.. Guess I'd better trade for it. One day the matching D prefix 4 5/8 Bisley that is now floating around in Vermont will surface...

Thought for a moment I could help you out in your quest but I was one # off! I have 44 Special, KNVB-444SPCL SERIAL # 520-22727. I WAS CLOSE.

Here is what it will look like when you find it..

AWESOME!

Classic "needle in a haystack" EXCEPT for the Internet and the info presented on one special, at least to me, web site.........

Thanks, Axe, for showing the incredible pair!

I agree completely... The internet and The Ruger Forum made this possible.. To capture them NIB also required an understanding distributor and dealer.. Attempting to track down other pairs is a good indicator of what could have easily happened to all of them..
