How many variations of 44 Special stainless steel single actions has Ruger offered?

To the best of my recollection

1. Blackhawk 4 5/8" Talo 1000 made

2. Vaquero Sheriff's model 3.75" about 500 made Lipsey's

3. Vaquero 4 5/8" about 500 made- Lipsey's

4. Blackhawk Bisley 4 5/8"- distributor exclusives

5. Blackhawk Bisley 5.5" limited run but not a distributor exclusive- please correct me if these were distributor exclusives

Am I missing any? Any additional info is appreciated. Only interested in stainless models.

There was a Ruger factory modded Talo Blackhawk with a 5.5" barrel that was offered on this forum slightly before the Bisley models came out. Wouldn't consider that an official model but the barrel change was apparently done during warranty work by the Ruger factory.
