WMG,,

Do you know approximately how many of the KS-41NH were made?

maybe @chet15 knows?

I got incredibly lucky. After a WTB on the Ruger Society Forum, a member there sent me a link to an auction that had a number of Ruger's, all ANIB, including both the .41 and .45 plow handles, as well as both in Bisley. I was able to get both, so I have (or will soon) the trio, plus the Rimfires (not the .17 convertible, just the HMR). I'll post family pics once I get them in!

And the hunt begins for the .17 convertible!

I know where one is... I just don't know if I can convince him to give it to me (not sell, GIVE).

Yeah, it would be cool to have the convertible, but I am a collector/accumulator, not a collector. All of my guns get shot (except for one that I hope will do well in 30+ years). I love the .17HMR and had two other in that caliber (RAR and NM SS). I do not need another caliber!!!!!

I answered Ty's .41 question in a PM, but the short version is that I don't really know, RENE has some numbers that add up to 540 in 2003-2005 but then mentions a few later ones in 2007, and the one I showed above is the latest of them all so far, shipped in 2011.

I am shipping a .17 convertible Hunter today, I had two and sold one recently

The .45LC had the same thing. Most shipped '03-'05, with some leftovers shipping later. I wonder if the total numbers are similar.

Thanks for the info. It helps us figure things out a little bit more.

 

[thinckley]

I decided to try and go straight to the source!

Will update once I have any additional info!

 

[contender]

Let's hope they will respond!

It is my understanding som were stamped Super Blackhawk and some were stamped as just blackhawk. In the .41,s anyway.

Love my 45 Bisley Hunter!

My dad has a 41 and 45 Bisley Hunter.
