I really like the looks and feel of the Ruger Redhawk with the 4 - 4 ½ barrel length. But not the stainless steel variety. I sure wish they'd offer that revolver in blued steel and .45 Colt caliber. I can just see that revolver now, with Ivory grips, in a Kirkpatrick, lined, tan leather hip holster, with a 12 round cartridge belt, with loops and a nickel buckle. That would be "orgasmic".

What would you like as a "YOUR" dream Ruger?


Same outfit but without the loops and with a six-round cartridge slide.

I will have to add one more on the stack for the Flattop in 327 / 32-20 convertible. We need this to go with the Henry's in 327 that were shipped in "late May". Oh wait, that was a dream.... Still waiting :roll:

I have my first two holy grails of ruger revolvers a Redhawk in 357 mag, 41 mag both in stainless and 5 1/2" barrels.

Now my next list of wants is a 8 shot Redhawk 5 1/2" barrel in 357 mag.

They just release mine. The 480 Ruger SB Bisley with 4-5/8 tube. Been waiting on this , and I am a happy Ruger Maniac!

I've never had a custom, and I'm sure my idea changes every few months but I'm good with this one at this point. Just sent off the money for one.

And that is a good one! Eager to hear how you like it when you get it!

Stainless Redhawk, .357 Mag, 8-shot cylinder cut for moon clips with a 5" barrel. Would be a great steel challenge or falling plate gun. Just like the current 2-3/4" model but with a useful barrel length.

I have mine, a 44 SPL New Model Blackhawk 4 5/8" barrel with a Power Customs hammer and trigger installed also a free spin pawi. Hand loading I don't know what I would do with anything more and I like the grip frame.

I have a few! A blued GP-100 Match champion in 6 shot .41 Special, 10 shot 22 LR, or 6 shot 10mm. Add a 4.2" or 5.5 " 8 shot 357 blued Redhawk. And yes, I have had my meds today. Bob!! 8)

Well, I must admit that I am currently sporting a chubby for the 6 1/2" Bisley .480. I have no practical use for it, I don't have ammo for it, I don't reload and it makes absolutely ZERO sense for me to get one. But DAMN I WANT ONE.

If you mean what do we want that they don't make, I'd like a Bisley Flattop in 10mm/.40 S&W convertible. Around a 5" barrel would suit me.

My 7 1/2" barreled 45 Colt Bisley model has 9 one shot kills on big whitetail deer, pretty hard to beat it for a woods hunting revolver, I carried it Elk hunting last fall and knew I could take shots out to 150yds no problem with it and hold good groups with heavy recoiling ammo.
So I recon what I would like in addition to it would be a 5 1/2" Bisley Vaquero or a Birdshead in 45 Colt as well.
I have had that gun for many years and the flap holster, my heavy duty cartridge belt with harness leather suspenders makes a great back country rig in Bear country as well

You all are very pedestrian in your desires. My dream revolver, in fact my grail revolver is a Webley Fosbery.

Last one I saw, and that was over a decade ago was one in only so so condition.

Price was $7000. I guess I could also call it my lottery winnings gun.

I guess my wants are fairly simple and old school ... Big frame Vaquero, bird's head grip frame, 3 3/4" octagon barrel, Bisley hammer, black powder chamfer on the cylinder, nicely done plum brown finish, Turnbull style color case finish on the frame, burl walnut grips, in .45 Colt, please!
