They have the Redhawk in .45lc, but could they put it into the GP100 and shave off a few ounces of weight?

CDNN has the 3 inch talo.
Once upon a time I bought one box of .44 specials to try in my 629. Rather than make a habit of that I bought an identical 625 to shoot .45ACP. I don't know that I really want a .44 special per say but I do like big bore revolvers so I'm kinda on the fence with the 5-shot GP100 .44 special. If Ruger had made a Wiley Clapp model I probably would have stronger feelings about getting one.
CDNN has the Talo model listed for $650 which is dang reasonable. But I should probably get a Ruger Blackhawk since I don't own any single actions at the moment.
This thread got me looking at 25s and 625s.

Not another dime.
I have only got the chance to fondle one of these once, might get to shoot it eventually. (uncle of a friend)
It was nice. I am too low on funds to even think about a new gun anytime soon, but if I was flush, I'd snag one of these.
You could always sell it and pick up a Smith, later, right? 😉

My feelings also. I wouldn't mind having a 44 spl but a 625 scratched my itch. I didn't see breaking into a whole new cartridge because I already load 45 ACP. Brass and bullets was already stacked deep for 45 ACP. It does take a special skill to load it for a revolver tho. Neck tension is important. For reloading, 44 spl is the winner but buying ammo would suck. I'm pretty much married to the 45 ACP.

In the P-F basket of deplorables.
