What's Your Dream Ruger Revolver?

[rodfarva]

The flattop .44 that I sold to Doc 44. It was an unfired flattop with matching box. I sold it to buy car parts

 

[t-reg]

Well I do have the FT BH .44 Spl.....

Next on the list would be a Midframe BH in 10mm / .40 S&W.

 

[Armybrat]

Fixed sights SP101 with 2.25" barrel and 6 or 7 shots in .327 with the Ruger logo wood inserts in the grips.
(don't know if the cylinder could handle 7 though, so 6 would still be great)

Mine is a Ruger purchased new and did not have to send it back to Ruger the first month I owned it.

Other than a full blown custom, I agree with Craig on the GP44 design that Bowen does on the SRH. But I'd like mine in 480 Ruger... or a new Ruger cartridge, the 50 or 500 Ruger (or to be safe from future infringement from anti-freedom thugs, the .495 Ruger, LOL).

I don't see why Ruger can't do this, or at least offer the Alaskan with a 4" to 5" barrel, and NOT that silly looking skinny barrel offered on the Toklat. Heck, why not a 4.80" barrel on the 480 Alaskan? 8)

I guess no one can empathize with this...selling or trading a gun you later regretted?

I'd like a Model 5773 Ruger 327 Magnum 4.20" Stainless Steel Capacity 6, rear sight adjustable. revolver.

I believe the last time this thread came up I posted this photo.

In high school I was reading G&A, looking at 500 Linebaughs. Like Ferraris in car magazines and Playboy playmates, I knew they were dreams I would never realize. :lol: lmao
I knew I would never own, never afford and never have a use for a 500 Linebaugh revolver, if I could even handle it.

Skip ahead a while... and I've owned one for close to 20 years now. Go figure. Strange how things work out. This year another dream Ruger was realized, a 5 shot 45 Colt.

I sure don't need a 475 Linebaugh... but then I didn't need the 45 Colt either. (or the 500 for that matter) But I'll use that as my answer, a custom 475.

 

[Robb Barnes]

I agree CAS, Ross' 475 #13 had got to be one of the most beautiful revolvers ever built.

I feel like Ruger needs to make more half lug, "Match Champion type" variants of the GP100. These would head back toward the Speed/Service series DA revolvers. Maybe some 3, 5 and 6 inch versions without the billboard lettering...

 

[SargeMO]

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?

You covered it for me brother. A nice set of sambars wouldn't hurt either.

9mm Single Six

With adjustable rear sight and fiber-optic front

 

[FergusonTO35]

The .40 S&W is a sweet cartridge with lead bullets and mild charges but still packs a decent punch. I would love to see some wheelguns so chambered, either single or double action.

 

[MalteseHoss]

A blued birds head shopkeeper in 40SW.

But the other one I plan on building. A GP100 match champion with standard rubber Hogues, night sights, and a fde cerakote. Now if it was a seven or 8 round.....

 

[FergusonTO35]

The GP-100 has a pretty big cylinder for a six shot .38/.357. I bet it wouldn't be hard at all to make one .40 S&W. I would prefer it over a .357 since I already load them for my Glock 22 and there is an endless supply of free range brass.

 

[Don Lovel]

The Lipseys 45 Colt/45acp Bisley with unfluted cylinders and 3.75" barrel is pretty close
10mm GP would be another

 

[Valmet]

At this point one of the handful of factory second "s" marked Single-Six Lightweights.

 

[Whiterabbit]

I have mine.

Dovetail front sight. 3.5" barrel that allows me to still pull the pin without removing the EJRH (second place would be the 4-5/8" length with standard EJRH length). All steel construction, no Aluminum or SS. Including the hammer, I like SBH hammers over bisleys. Birdshead gripframe. Case colored frame and rust blued everything else. All fixed sights, only 6 screws total on the revolver. I choose to maintain a gas ring on my revolvers.

Not sure on the best grip panels, but so far she has only had blond colored stocks. Perhaps I should try brunette. Maybe Albino. I'm open to suggestions on what to use with antiqued rust blue.

Pick whatever cartridge your imagination says it should be, and life is good.

 

[hdrk1111]

Old model BH in 45 colt with a really nice set of stag grips and a blue vaquero 357 convertible 5.5". Yep that ought to do it for me.

 

[wildcatter]

There are many, but every one is a single action! 22's 32's, 45's 480/475's, none over 6" and a couple under 4",,, ald man, old fashioned, and old styles,, I own several, and ain't seen many revolvers that will outshout em. OH YA! they would all have Ruger frames as well,,,,,,
