Ruger flat top 44mag 10 in barrel!!

[gunrun45]

Not affiliated with seller or Olde West but found it and had to tell anybody who might want this great piece.

Like the title says. Found it at Olde West in Redding for $900.
Bluing was worn and it had aftermarket fake pearl grips but otherwise was in great shape (tight lockup, perfect sear engagement, no cylinder wobble and clean bore)! Factory micro sights were in perfect shape and had no sighns of being monkeyed with, just shot over the years. Screw heads were all straight and showed no signs of "tinkering".

Just thought I'd post a heads up since these are kinda rare.

Olde West is C&R savy and this makes the C&R list if memory serves right.

I have a feeling the guns with the uber-long barrels just aren't popular. There's been an S&W Model 29 Silhouette with the 10" tube for sale at Contra Costa Collectible Firearms for almost a year and there it sits. Pretty cool looking firearm but obviously a very limited market.

I know the one -- have almost bought it a couple of times but then I remember it would take up way too much room on my Sturdy Safe pistol shelves...and it's just not quite long enough to fit in the rifle rack

Still, the adjustable front sight is way cool....

I saw a 10.5" Ruger .357 Maximum Blackhawk for sale at the Vallejo Gun Show earlier in the year. Don't know if anyone bought it but that was one intimidating looking shooten iron.

The 10 in barrel flat top is a pretty rare gun if memory serves correctly. That's why I posted this here. Thought maybe somebody could have a little happines that I can't afford right now
