Clements Custom 44 special
« on: December 07, 2011, 07:53:00 AM »
This is a Ruger OM that was sent back to Ruger for the conversion and a steel Old Army frame.  It was then sent to David Clements for a Quinn package with the additional work of installing a new 7 ½ “ barrel, cylinder black powder chamfer, Bowen rear sight, a custom base pin,  Clements custom front sight, end shake and barrel cylinder gap tolerances tightened.

That's a very nice 44 spl!  It's one to be proud of!  (how's it shoot?)  That's a very 'special special'.  Enjoy it!  44 Man
I always thought I'd like a custom .44, but one of the Andy Horvath style guns.  Old .357 frame, 4" barrel, and aluminum frame round butt.  Now I would be perfectly happy with a 'New' Vaquero in .44 spl if Ruger decides to build it, or sometime I will find a bargain blued .357 and convert one.  (I already have the 4" barrel.)

Hi 44 Man. Ruger is already making the gun you want. It's a Lipsey's limited edition gun in three barrel lengths: 3.75", 4.62" and 5.5".







I have the 5.5" Bisley and it shoots better than I do.

They also make the first two in stainless if you prefer.

There we go Graybeard!  I won't take Indiana Denny's post off subject, but I can see the short barreled one in my future.  44 Man
