I was offered today a 6 1/2" 3 screw flattop 44 mag that has been converted, original parts included, for $500. The pistol is in great shape considering the age. The serial number is in the low 19,000 range.I was thinking about this gun in the context of adding a #5 grip frame to it. Is that a decent price? I haven't owned any of the three screws in the Rugers.

Seems to be a good price, provided it is in good shape like you say.

I'd call it a great price!!!
I would not have thought about that one and would have owned it before someone changed their mind.

After the comments here, I don't think I can pass it up.

That's a steal on a flat-top .44!

Yes sir, that one is a no brainer even if you just wanted to put the original parts back and in and shoot it but especially if you want to do a custom out of it. Good call in buying it.

I have done this very thing and it is my favorite shooter. You will need an OM Bisley hammer too from either Clements or Power Custom to go with the #5 grip frame. I do not have a photobucket account or I would post a picture of mine for you to see.

I got it for $450. I need some grips for it now. It has the ugliest plastic fake stag grips on it, like a cap gun from the 60's.
