Lipseys vs Now Produced 44 Specials?

[ShortBBL]

Is there a size differance or are these identical guns? I have a Lipseys 4 5/8" and want to grab a 5.5" this week for holster patterns. Are the frame sizes of the currently made 44 special flattops the same as the Lipseys? It would sure seem logical... but ya never know!

Thanks!

Ruger told lipsey they had to order 2000 to pt them off and apparently lipsey called back and said they were all preordered and sold so could they get 2000 more.(acording to handloader magazine)
Guess ruger thought it was a good idea to catalog them
