query re: new factory production blackhawk .44 special

[rugerlovah]

I realize there may not be an answer for this yet, but I was curious ... Ruger has added the blackhawk .44 special as a catalog item now. so .... does this mean its the midsize frame like the vaquero (and the lipsey's special run)? or is it the standard NM frame w/ alloy grip frame?

Exact same gun as the Lipsey's. Medium frame, steel XR-3, Flat top.

Maybe we could get rid of the sticky on the no-longer-an-issue 327 discussion and have one about what exactly the catalog 44 specials are!
