Tequila Shooter Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I realize this might be a long shot but I’m looking for a 5.5 inch Old Army. Stainless or Blued, if you have a pair and want to sell both I might be interested. PM me if you’re willing to sell one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Foot Johnson Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Not particularly hard to find, you just need a wheelbarrow of cash, expecially for a stainless version. There's a stainless fixed sight on GB right now, unfired/NIB, but listed as used, currently at $1100 with 4+ days to go.* An unfired NIB fixed sight blued model recently went for $1100. Both were/are listed as used. (Pretty sure Ruger never made a production 5 1/2"er with adjustable sights.) I've read only about 12,600 fixed sight models were ever made (both barrel lengths), so all of them are getting relatively scarce. *Now at $1505, shipped, with 3 1/2 days to go. I had a pair of blue 5 1/2"ers fifteen years ago, and really didn't care for the shorter barrel - I sold them within three months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Sombra Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 @Tequila Shooter Check with Goon Gun Works. I believe that they modified a Texas pard’s gun. La Sombra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeldog 4078 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 There is a 7.5 fixed, blued on GB good candidate for a cut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Pee Wee was trying to sell a pair of very nice 7.5s a while ago. They were fixed sight models built by Lash, a good gunsmith & deceased shooting pard. They would be good candidates for cutting down to 5.5" I don't recall them being sold, so yo can message him if interested. --Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
