Stainless Ruger Bisley

[freakindawgen]

I just picked up my latest Ruger (a Montado) and my gun dealer asked me to find out about his latest find.A Bisley model 7 1/5 in bbl 44mag and in stainless.I guess I thought it was pretty common but he and I cannot find another like it.The grips are not laminate,and has no indentions for a scope.Any clues?

Hmmm, methinks "homeboy" conversion of a stainless Super Blackhawk.

The Stainless Bisley line uses "rollmarked" cylinders. There are some blued Bisleys with fluted cylinders.

We were thinkin the same thing,but after comparing the frames,looks like the Bisley has a different shape under the hammer.The only stainless Bisleys I found were 5 1/2 " bbls and had the roll mark.Guess a Super Blackhawk cylinder could have been substituted.Ruger has been known for some one-offs and I have no need for this one but do like it none the less.
