I would like to know if anyone knows the whereabouts of 44flattop sn 16599 and if so, is it a 7.5 variation.

I'll check my notes.
Send an email to me at CHRugers@aol.com as a reminder.
16559 isn't on the list that is on Rugerforum.com, so if it is in my notes (doubtful) it won't be a 7-1/2".
Do you have a consecutive?

I have 16558 and 16560. I have been into the kick of finding consecutive sn guns, and just happened to luck into 16560 recently.. It had a grip frame that was polished to bare metal and a bad hammer so I replaced the hammer with a good one.. 16558 is a 98% gun, 16560 has some blue loss on muzzle and edges, but sure does look pretty next to its sibling...and yes, both are 7.5 variations...

I have two BKH47s: 25699 and 17891, both minty. No boxes.
I am considering selling one after the new year.
Have a few more Flatties, including a BKH30, and Hawkeye duplicates I may let go as well.

Can one of you guys add those two BKH47s to the list on Ruger forum? I have letters for both.
Thanks.
