Help me identify this Ruger

[Fulci Fan]

Hey, I don't know how many Zevon fans are on here but I am trying to find out what model Ruger this is.

Thanks, guys.

 

[Marauder]

That looks like a S&W..

That looks like a S&W..

Agreed

 

[bean93x]

looks like a taurus

 

[BlueHeeler]

I vote Model 29

 

[august1410]

Definitely not a Ruger.

Looks like a S&W 29, 25, or 57.

 

[CrabbyMcNab]

My limited knowledge thinks it's not a Ruger.

Doesn't S&W use that cylinder release?

It's the "Excitable Boy" album....1978.

Unless the plate is made by someone named Ruger I don't know what you're talking about.
The revolver is a N frame Smith&Wesson.
An older one at that as the barrel is pinned.
The emblems in the grips should have been your first clue.
That is a Smith &Wesson model 29-2 .44 magnum.

Is this maybe what you thought it was (Ruger Redhawk, 5-1/2" bbl)?

PS: also available with 7-1/2" barrel

 

[Engage Armament]

Glock 19 with 33rd mag

Not a 28, a 27 maybe. The 28 was the 27's poorer brother. The finish looks too nice for a 28 and I don't think the 28's came in that barrel length.

 

[teratos]

Hi-Point revolver with the shoulder thing that goes up.....

 

[GNLaFrance]

Potato!




Right there, on the plate, see?

One of my favorite albums!!! (for you young 'uns, that's like a giant black CD but it's played by dragging a needle across it rather than a laser. Weird, right?)

oh yeah, not a Ruger.
