Another new Lipsey model

[CraigC]

It's has a 14" barrel, a new more rounded Bisley grip frame, 7 shot, .42 magnum Ruger caliber, ( a new one) with a 425 grain bullet, traveling at 500 fps, fiber optic front sights, and a No 1 Express rear sight. It'll be shipped with a custom set of dies, where you can form brass from normal 444 Rem, and it'll have replaceable nylon grip panels. The grip frame will be glass filled polymer, colored to look like stainless, but lighter in weight. It'll have the Bisley hammer & a Super Blackhawk trigger.
Factory ammo will be available next year from Russia.

If it doesn't have a picatinny rail and a threaded muzzle you can just forget it! :P

Maybe a Ruger 500. They could name it the 500 Gryphon.

As much buzz as there is about this one, these things are going to be scarce and probably way inflated in price, unless some of our good forum dealers can come up some.

I rekon it still be better than S&W where you find out about it ten years after they've discontinued it.

The picatinny rail & the threaded muzzle will be offered as a second model type, AFTER they sell a boatload to make everybody want a second one.

What, no bayonet lug???

 

[Jimbo357mag]

I keep checking here to see if anyone has spilled the beans yet. "There are no beans at this time, please check back in a few days", is all i get. Oh well. :D

 

[contender]

jimbo,,, those that know, have sworn secrecy. If they break their word,,, they will not be allowed to know other things in the future.

"Have patience grasshopper!"

(Friday isn't that far off!)

 

[LuckenbachTexas]

Is it a Hoax, or a 45/410/454? :lol:

Just like Ruger to come to that party late.

Oh wait, dats a fixed sight 327 Single Six with Buffalo Bore in Starline brass!!!

 

[TCGuy]

Question mark magnum? Maybe not in a magnum class at all?
The .454 uses small primers.

To be precise, the .454 uses small RIFLE primers.

 

[Koveras]

Maybe my eyes are playing tricks, but it looks like either a recessed chamber for a rimmed cartridge or a straight chamber for a large semi-auto cartridge. Maybe a .50 AE? It's too big for a 10mm.

Joe S. Quote {I have found that Ruger-, and Marlin-itis is only as curable as your wallet is deep...}

So VERY true!!!

The worst part about the above statement is, you only need one of each. Anything in excess is a mental condition (-itis) for sure.

Given that statement and after looking in my gun cabinet it would seem that I have a mental condition... on the plus side most of the people here IMHO have the same mental condition :D

Helpful phrase when talking to normal people: "It's a Ruger thing... you wouldn't understand"

[LuckenbachTexas]

I have the -itus too.

Lipsey facebook page says they'll announce it Sunday at noon EST.

 

[stevemb]

Funny sorta, for a webforum called the rugerforum, this thread only 3 pages. Other webforums well into double-digits.

 

[rjwinz]

Then again, what is to discuss? All rank speculation at this point.

Kinda surprised too!

 

[ChiefMuzz]

Well with the hints it seems to be the recoil and caliber are the novel features of it. Obviously something large bore.
I don't know if my gun fund has enough in it right now for that Super Blackhawks 480 but hopefully it is a Bisley.

 

[TINCANBANDIT]

Man i want one!!

Just for the base pin! :mrgreen:

Perhaps a 5 shot centerfire Bearcat?, .22 TCM??

Lipsey Facebook page forecast to crash due to unusually high traffic at 12:02pm Sunday...... :)

 

[Thumbcocker]

New model black hawk in .40 S&W?

Yea, we should get really mad at Jason and complain about Ruger...Just like the single action forum....

I'm broke after buying a member's Lipsey 44mag SBH Bisley so it's just entertainment for me. I hope they saturate the market and resale is like on a Bisley Hunter....

 

[eveled]

my guess, 10mm, 40cal convertible.

 

[stevemb]

I'm not complaining. Just have come to the conclusion that most of the volume here lounge/poly stuff, not shooting or Rugers. Funny, sorta.

 

[Sugar River]

my guess, 10mm, 40cal convertible.

Funniest one yet!

 

[AKDRSS]

My only hope is Lipseys isn't blowing smoke about this model like they did on the #1's which we were told should be ready by the end of April and we still haven seen them.
