Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
Always liked those ! But I think they would be much nice with a brass grip frame. Saw one with adjustable rear sight , guess that's NOT a standard option?
Let us know how it shoots!

Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
Beatcat? Is it a 60's commemorative edition? i like it, tried getting a 4" adjustable sight version on GB but they always went way to high at the end. Todd/3leg
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres
250 Savage... its what the 223 wishes it could be...!

Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
The bearcat has a near universal grip.
Even goomers with mitts like a side of bacon might complain of it being too small but they can usually shoot it just fine.

Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
That's beautiful.
I still regard the Bearcat as more of a 'pocket pistol' vs the 'Single Six' and this is more in the latter category, but nonetheless, it is a nice Bearcat.
Of course I like weird stuff, because I also like the North American Arms Mini Revolver they call the 'Earl'....

Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
They sure look good.
Sadly, I have never met a Bearcat that I liked.
Those that are fans can keep 'em.

Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
Funny thing....I've owned dozens of single action Rugers...and one Bearcat...was a NIB Super Bearcat.... did not even have the desire to shoot it.....down the road it went, still unfired..
Can't think of a use for one...reminds me of one of those useless NA guns you use as a belt buckle.....but that's me....don't knock anyone for liking them as they are quality American built.
The Linsey's gun sure in an improvement in the looks dept......I'm thinking 5 shot 32 Long?----6

Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
That's a handsome 'Cat.
Doc, I had one of the NA Earls and it was woefully inaccurate, even after I sent it back for a new barrel.
Friend Earl from Oregon can attest. I wanted it to work.

Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
That is one handsome revolver, if it shoots only half as good as it looks you will be well pleased........
Whatever you do always give 100%........... unless you are donating blood.
Re: New Ruger Beatcat Special
With adjustable sights they might, maybe peak my interest IF I didn't already have a Single Six.
