357 & 41 mag Bisleys

Does anyone know how many SS 5.5" Bisleys were made in .357 and .41 magnums? I own and have seen many in .45Cilt, .45ACP, and .44 mag

I don't have exact numbers and I doubt anyone does as Ruger does not provide production numbers. But this is what I know from my experience. The 357's are hard to find and probably fairly low numbers made and I don't think they have been made since Accusport offered them some 15 years ago. There may have been a few "cleanup" runs since.
The 41 magnum was offered by Accusport and then by Williams Shooters Supply and were regularly in stock at Williams from at least 2015 - 2019 when they closed up.
CDNN offered some 41 magnums earlier this summer but not a large number. They sold them out in 2 days.
RSR group has picked up some of Williams exclusives in 45 caliber but I don't think they picked up the 41 mag. It would be wise for someone to pick it up as an exclusive but they can be slow sellers if too many are in stock.

There was a Williams 41 on GB this morning.

And, one I rarely see is on there as well, a 44. I think the rarest of the 4, but I don't know if there was a Accusport & a Williams 357 or not.

That 41 went for over $950.

If I recall correctly, there was only a single run of both the .357 and the .44 mag models and bother from Acusport. Either makes it 250 or 500 of each of those. The .41 was done in a few different runs by the two aforementioned distributors.
Very interring to see the .41 recently sold for that amount. Makes me wonder what the .44 and especially the .357 would go for. Even more so, a consecutively numbered pair of the .357's :wink:

I'm cleaning my .357 Accusport now. Only wish it came with a 9mm cylinder as well

The 44 Sold for $905 + 25 ship.

One more 41 on GB now for in my opinion crazy money. Bet they are great shooters though!

I spoke to a distributor and from what I understood, Flattop Bisley stainless convertible 357 Magnum / 9mm is in the pipeline. When, that's another story.

I would love to get one. If it's accurate like 686-3, this one will be for sale next day.

:shock: Wow. Seeing these prices almost has me thinking I should dig all mine out and sell 'em off, especially the consec # pair of .357's
