    5" blued GP100 .44 special

    I see that Lipseys has them out now and they are starting to show up on pics in facebook groups.
    Anybody here got one yet?

    My 3" went back to the factory twice to be put together the way it should have been the first time. I will let someone else break this new ground before I jump in.

    The only one I have seen (on a facebook review) said that he didn't measure it, but a .430 boolit fell through all the throats with ease.
