Clay, I see you do a lot of Ruger stuff.

Any chance in hell of Ruger coming out with another semi auto 44 mag rifle? It seems that the demand is there and the Deerfield prices are being driven into the stratosphere on both sides of the border.

A modern stainless version would be a great lightweight backpacking rifle.

no, nothing in the pipeline but I can ask at SHOT this year.
 
THIS would be the perfect bush gun for me and I imagine for a lot of other people. This fellow custom built a stock, lever and magazines for his Ruger 96/44 and made it into something so much more amazing:

If Ruger ever made something like this I bet they would sell a lot of them and I would most definitely be one of the first people to buy one.
 
I would be interested in a new or revamped Ruger .44 Mag Carbine as well. ( Wood stock/ Stainless barrel/action)....Preferably in the older style and not so much like the PC9.

I would still prefer semi auto.

But I agree that is a very interesting rifle!
 
Build a 460 or 500 version....

While we're fantasizing, why did they never do a run of 77/44's in 480 ruger?

That would round out my collection of super magnum pistol carbines nicely.
 
I would love either a 44 mag semi-Auto like the old Deerfield, or a compact lever style like Ruger used to make. I like the compactness and utility of it and in stainless steel with an aluminum receiver it would be an awesome rifle for trapping and bush hunting.
No tube magazine. Removable box mag. One piece stock. Even with a standard 5+1 magazine capacity it would be close to my ideal rifle for a lot of work and play in the forest.
 
Response from Lipsey's Ruger special orders manager:

"I agree that an all weather model would be nice. Ruger hasn’t expressed much interest in bringing it back though. Last time it fizzled out pretty fast."
