BKH-45X would have originally been a 7 1/2" barrel.

read below please

the loveley ladies at Ruger must have mis-typed as you can see in the letter it's also a 45 LR cal, not LC, I guess I need to call Ruger tommorrow to re verify this is an original 4 5/8" gun, flathead
this development has completeley thrown me I never realized the letter was supposed to say BKH44X, had this gun over 2 years, I guess we'll have to put this sale on hold until I know for sure this gun is really a legit short barrel, will call records tommorrow and we'll see what they say, thanks

 

[gunslinger_h]

I am not well versed with numbers or letters regarding Ruger Old Models, but wouldn't it say .45 if it was a .45 and .44 if it was a .44?? It would seem that everything is proper to me except for the LR instead of the LC. Just my take on it. Beautiful piece. Good luck with your sale. Hank

 

[flatheadsal]

Well Hank I've always assumed it was a factory short barrel, but now realizing what the letter says I can only hope it was a typo on the ladies part, I'll find out when I call records tommorrow, if you look at the end of the barrel, sight and bluing it all looks original to me, but we'll see tommorrow I guess, and yes regardless it IS a beauty, thanks, flathead

 

[45Colt_Man]

I hope they do come back and say it was a BKH-44X. Didn't mean to mess up your sales attempt. I forgot to say nice gun in my original post.

[flatheadsal]

no problem Dana glad you spotted it! I do have a pretty good selling rep here, don't want to mess that up, thanks, flathead

 

[gunslinger_h]

I see. I thought that you were speaking of caliber and not of barrel length. I looked at one of my letters and it has the barrel length on it. I did not think to look for that when looking at your letter. I hope that it works out best for you. Hank

 

[Texas Jack Black]

I believe it would say BKH44X if it was a 4 5/8 inch gun.

[flatheadsal]

yes Jack I think they made a typo on the letter, barrel end, sight and blue all look original

 

[Texas Jack Black]

I wish you the best and hope it is a shortie.

Very nice package- Your honesty shows also.

 

[flatheadsal]

thanks guys, keeping my fingers crossed, still a nice package even if it's shortened, I guess a price adjustment would then be in order, we'll see, flathead

 

[flatheadsal]

Talked to Ruger today it is a FACTORY 4 5/8" BARREL New letter is on the way it left as a BKH44X, the old letter was typed in wrong, thanks guys for your patience, so now someone needs to buy it, lol, flathead
