:grin: Well, I went down to my local gunshop to browse and payoff my maximum. They were a little busy so I grabbed a flier from Davidson's and sat down out of the way. A couple minutes later, I was in line with a couple C-notes in hand. Davidson's is distributing the Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunter BISLEY in .41Magnum. I've got mine on lay-awake now. Just FYI .41Magnum people, in case you didn't already know. :mrgreen:

The Bisley Hunter in 41 Mag should be a great hunting gun. Glad to hear about it. Davidsons comes up with some nice varients. I really want one in 45 Colt. :-)

Yes they do.  I've already got one of the 45 Hunters that I like as-is.  I would like to see a 357 hunter though.  Just because.  

   Years ago, I was on a .41 kick.  Guess financilly, it's a good thing I got off it.  A Acusport 41 Bisley, and these 2 41 hunters would've been WAY too tempting.  (not that the same models in 45 didn't hit the gun-fund a little hard) :wink:

Well here we go again running up my bill, It so happens that that is one i don't have. You say that Davidsons has these in stock ? Well any way guess i will have to get on the phone in the morning and see what we can do about that. I have been looking for a 41 SBH in the hunter mode for a while and the bisley grip frame fits my hand much better than the SBHs
do.    Yall have a good day...............Joe........................................

What with tax, dealer, shipping, and dros; just a little over 6 C-notes. I get charged a little more for a special order. Dealer's pretty good to me though, I got a 98% Ruger .357Maximum with box, papers, and shipping sleeve for under 4 C-notes! It all evens out in the long run. :wink:

      This one ain't treatin' you very well at that price.  MSRP is $650 so max purchase price I'd expect to see would be in the $525-535 range.  Checked by brother's dealer pricing, so knowing what dealer cost is on these, your dealer is proberly going on a nice vacation on you while you're walking a little funny.  
    Here's one for less than $500.  I've dealt w/ them and they're great to do business with.  http://www.gunbroker.com/auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=19013358

Well, as he said, it all washes in the end.  If the fellow does him right on some but charges a little more on special orders, at least its known up front.  I tried to buy a Wilson Combat CQB pistol about a year ago and was going to buy it out of Texas.  I was in a store near school so I asked them how much the transfer fee would be.  Usually is only $25 even and you go about your business.  They told me it would be $180 because they could special order that pistol and sell it themselves.  I smiled, laughed, and told them to kiss my.....and I would never buy anymore from them.  To this day I haven't and don't intend to.  Plenty of people will sell besides them.  They were not a stocking dealer of Wilsons so I figured they would do things normally, guess not.  Anyway, if Joe Mack was able to get a 357 Max from this fellow for less than $400, thats excellent so these two purchases even out in the end as he mentioned and he has exactly what he wants when all is said and done.  Enjoy the Bisley.  GS

Yeah, I don't begrudge him his take on special orders and he really gives me good deals on stuff people sell him he knows I like or what's in inventory. It's also a nice place to sit and have coffee or soda and chew the fat. This is another reason I like the Mom and Pop dealer. A dealer I originally had would invite people to wild game BBQs out behind the store after hours, give away free posters and decals, have free coffee and soda, invite selected people hunting, etc. His regulars were friends as well as customers. It's unfortunate he passed away. I lost a good friend, hunting companion, and great store all in one fell swoop. I only buy off the 'net for unique items he can't order or it's not feasible to stock. When the locals go out of business, it's only a matter of time before we're buying from the "government store." JMHO. :D
