So my first two guns have been bought and I just have to wait until the new Gun ownership certificate for 16 guns arrives. :mrgreen:

and a New Bearcat

Forgive the name of the dealer's website but this is really a gun shop and not an Sex shop as one might think. :)

Ruger Wrangler will be bought again soon and I'm in contact with someone about a Stainless Old Army in new condition.

Thanks Arctic Ruger.

You laugh but when I googled the words Bearcat and Austria together and saw the link I thought it was a bad joke or an adult industry business. :lol:

Unfortunately, I have to collect under completely different possibilities than you have in America.

It starts with the simplest things like moonclips, which shopruger.com doesn't send me to Austria because of American export regulations. :(

It is an odyssey to get weapons and the wholesalers often do not have all models listed, such as the Sp101, Wrangler or Bearcat.

I had to import my Super GP100 from a German dealer who had it in stock because none had reached my home country for a year.

In addition, there are the prices, which are not weak. My Super GP100 would have cost almost $1000 more than Ruger's MSRP in American.

Best regards
What model do you need moon clips for? Maybe they can make their way to you

In my case it doesn't matter because it's about the Super GP100 in 357Mag/38 spl, which can also be shot without clips. The lack of availability of the clips was also the reason why I never thought about the 9mm model.

Best regards

Hello Friends.

The last few days have not only been successful but also expensive. 8-)

As soon as the new card with the higher approved number is there, I will pick up the weapons I have already paid for and send pictures later.

I then own the following Ruger revolvers:

1) Super Redhawk Alaskan 44 Mag
2) Redhawk 44 Mag
3) Super GP100 357 Mag
4) GP100 44 Special
5) LCR 38 Special

6) Wrangler 22lr
7) NM Single Six Convertible 22lr/22 Mag
8) New Bearcat 22lr
9) NM Blackhawk 357 Mag
10) NM Super Blackhawk Hunter 44 Mag
11) New Vaquero 357 Mag

Now it's time to find a nice SP101 and I have at least 1 of all current models. :)

The revolvers Old Army, Old Vaquero & Security Six are relatively easily available and some are in very good condition.

However, what really poses a problem for me is buying a Maximum Blackhawk :?

Best regards

Thank you Bill.

Luck really is a bird and it flew to me today. I was able to buy a new Single Six Hunter in Germany today in 17 HMR including a telescopic sight for 685 dollars. The joy is of course very great.
