Several and I highly recommend them. One of my favorite revolvers is my Uberti Flattop Target Revolver in 44-40/44 Special...

Here are two of my .44 Specials, a Ruger and cimarron Model P from Uberti.  And here it is with the first target I ever shot with it:  I was .44 Special poor for awhile, but now have a fair stable full of .44 Specials, including some Colts I was able to latch onto. It is one thing to shoot .44 Specials in a .44 Magnum, but it is frosting on the cake to shoot a .44 Special revolver. Bob Wright |

Now I got ta get a .44spl looking at your pics
Dang line at my small gun shop this afternoon, waited 20 minutes, then I left
Maybe first thing in the AM.
I was looking at those with the thunderball birds-head grip, cause they had a 3 1/2" in .44 spl.
I was thinking id'd cost me more to buy regular grip frame. Not sure id like that birds-head type
I like my 3 1/2" uberti short stroke...

Uberti shut down in Italy for the Coronavirus. I wouldn't hesitate to order NOW if I wanted one.

Anyone have a SAA .44 special?
OH A COUPLE OR MORE. YOU CAN READ ALL ABOUT IT WHEN "THE BOOK OF THE .44" COMES OUT THIS FALL. IT WILL BE EVEN LARGER THAN "THE BOOK OF THE .45" WITH 62 CHAPTERS
