Not sure how I'm gonna hide this from my wife but I ordered a Ruger SS .44 Special 4 5/8" today........The guy at the gunstore said "Now you know this is a .44 Special?"
This is going to be the base gun for my dad's first custom job. My current plans include an action job, a 5 1/2" barrel, bowen rear sight, custom front sight, Ivory Micarta stocks, some light scratches........
My Pop has always wanted an engraved gun. I told him we would fancy one up but only if is going to be a shooter.
I'm going to be listing a Ruger Blue Bisley .41 Mag 7 1/2" on Gunbroker soon to finace this project. I'll post a link as soon as I do.

I have found my boys to be a cheap easy and convenient "excuse". Like, Hey Sweetie Pie Honey Sweetheart Princess Of My Life, Look at these 2 Anniversary Flattops I picked up for the boys,they are limited editions and I knew you would understand why I just couldnt pass them up. With a bit of common sense it works like a charm!!!

JT, that is great news regarding her progress. She'll be up and at 'em soon enough with her revamped transmission. Someone in my family had one done, and now keeping up with her is a challenge!

Spades I am sure your dad will really like that one. Those FT Ruger 44's are just "right". I would be interested in that 41 Bisley. I have been looking for one. Dan

JT, did you and Dot talk about guns on all your pre-wedding dates? Just wondering. BTW my gal had a comlete knee replacement this year. After a few months recovery and rehab, the constant pain is gone. Still gets some weather change aches but nothing like it used to be. God bless her and don't fatten her up with those spuds! She's got rehab work to do here pretty soon!

My wife despised guns when we met but after much patience and instruction she is now the proud owner of a Glock 19 and a Ruger LCP. As they say "if momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!"
