Lipsey's Bisley 44 Specials Arrive!
« on: March 03, 2010, 01:20:35 PM »
Three arrived.   Brought a 5.5 home...  The consecutive serial number pair of 4 5/8 guns were taken while I was closing the deal on this one...

If liberals liked guns you would be required to buy one a month not limed to one handgun a month. 
Sorry, some silly states have that rule. >:(

Really like the bisley.  Cool aquire. 8)

Okay, is this a special build? I like the looks of the hammer and was wondering if it may be available.

They are a Lipsey's exclusive.   5 1/2 and 4 5/8......  Word is the first run was 500 of each barrel length on the initial run....  Don't know if there will be more or not....

I am a fan of the Bowen target rear sight myself....  Bad thing is that they aren't made for the FT blackhawks...  Yet.

FWIW my FFL had a pair of consecutive serial number 4 5/8 Bisley FT 44s.... 
They were taken while I was cutting the deal on the 5 1/2 inch gun...

Your right, I forgot about that. Maybe with so many new flattops around these days, Bowen will get around to making one. Ruger sights aren't bad but Bowens are better. I guess I always think of Bowen whenever I see a BH Bisley. Yours is pretty darn special just the way it is. ENJOY !!!

Bowen does make the "Rough Country" for the flat top, but indeed not the target model. I put a RC on my Flat top #5 and really do like it.

My dealer sent me an email when Lipseys started getting them in.  Mine is supposed to be on the way, but she said maybe a couple of months so that means we may be further down in the pecking order for receiving them.  Now to just get the heart palpitations to stop long enough so I can find my brass and load up a few hundred rounds and get ready to shoot it when it gets here. 

Wohoo, pictures are better than the cover of the Dillon catalog!!

If I had had the choice I would have picked the Bisley .44 Special. However, when I ordered my .44 Lipsey Special, it wasn't an option. Now, I am so "wedded" to mine that I wouldn't change for all of the tea in China. I am flat ENAMORED of my Lipsey (5½"). The only thing I did was had a trigger job done. I REALLY like the "new" pawl. In fact, it spoiled me and after I received my SS Bisley .45 Colt/.45 ACP convertible I had the original pawl modified to a "free spin" pawl.

The .44 Specials are indeed SPECIAL revolvers.

FWIW
