.44 special Flattop Bisley

[jfo4]

Is this edition out yet? I've had poor luck finding one

Any ideas?

They have come and gone here. May be one or two residual FT Bisley 44s in the display case. Call Larry's Pistol and Pawn in Huntsville AL 256-534-1000. Ask for John Hering. It can be very hard to get through on the telephone. John's email is: [e-mail]

Lipsey's still has a handful of 4-5/8s, they are out of 5-1/2s. Phone [phone], ask for Jason and tell him Boge sentchee. Hopefully there's a Lipseys-affiliated dealer close to you.

NEVER MIND - I just talked to Jason, and they are out of all barrel lengths. They will be getting more.

Jason;
When the first .44 Lipsey Specials hit the market, I got the word a bit late. I had to get my dealer buddy on Lipsey's list (took a couple of weeks to qualify him) then had to wait until a later shipment occurred.

If you really want one, check to see if your dealer is a "Lipsey" dealer, then ORDER it through your dealer from Lipsey. That is the one best way to insure that you get one.

I consider my 5½" .44 Lipsey Special a SUPERIOR piece in every way. After a trigger job, you will think you have a VERY expensive custom piece.

I have a NIB 4 5/8 and a consec. pair of the 7.5" FT Bisleys (i.e. Shootist mistakes) that I may be talked out of. PM me.

Picked up a 5.5" in Columbus, MS last week. First one I had seen in the flesh.

With Skeeter's load, as well as Elmer's and several other favorites, it shot extremely well. The only sight adjustment needed was a click or two up for POA impact at 50 yards.

This is a well made piece in all phases. Even the trigger pull was above standard. All it needs now is some new shoes by Paul Persinger .

I did a 'poor man's trigger job' on my Lipsey Bisley 4 5/8" and loaded up a bunch of 200 and 240 gr rounds with Titegroup and have been having a great time at the range ever since. Amazing gun! Dennis
