Description:
The Ruger GP100 Lipsey's Exclusive (1770) is a double-action, single-action revolver chambered in 44 Special, built for big-bore revolver enthusiasts, field hunters, and serious shooters who want a medium-frame workhorse with a classic half-lug profile, stainless steel construction, and a 5-inch sight radius in a manageable 5-shot package.

Special Features
  • The half-lug barrel profile removes the underbarrel weight of a full-lug design, shifting the balance point rearward toward the grip frame and producing a revolver that sits naturally in hand for extended field carry without front-heaviness.
  • The unfluted cylinder on this Lipsey's Exclusive build gives the 1770 a clean, classic visual profile distinct from standard GP100 production models, while maintaining the full cylinder wall thickness suited to the 44 Special cartridge.
  • Ruger's triple-locking cylinder locks into the frame at the front, rear, and bottom simultaneously, providing cylinder-to-frame alignment that holds up across thousands of rounds of full-power big-bore loads.
  • The stainless steel construction throughout the frame, barrel, and cylinder resists corrosion and surface wear across seasons of field carry without requiring regular bluing maintenance.
  • The smooth walnut grips are shaped in the Roper pattern, a classic big-bore revolver grip profile that fills the hand naturally and distributes the 44 Special impulse across a wide grip surface.
  • The adjustable rear sight is essential on a 44 Special revolver where bullet weights range from 165 to 255 grains, letting you dial in a precise zero for the specific load you carry or hunt with.
  • The gold bead front sight provides a high-contrast aiming point that picks up quickly in field lighting conditions, where a plain black post can disappear against dark backgrounds.
Practical Benefits
  • The 44 Special at moderate velocities produces low muzzle blast and flash compared to magnum cartridges, making the GP100 1770 approachable for extended range sessions and a natural fit for shooters who reload and want a big-bore platform that is easy on brass and components.
  • With heavy hard-cast factory loads from makers like Buffalo Bore and Double Tap, the 44 Special out of a 5-inch barrel generates enough energy for medium-size game hunting and field protection without the sharp blast of a 44 Magnum.
  • The 5-inch barrel gives you a longer sight radius than a carry-sized snub revolver, translating directly to more precise shot placement at hunting distances and on steel targets at the range.
  • The stainless finish and walnut grips make the 1770 a natural open-carry field revolver that holds up to rain, humidity, and rough pack conditions without special care.
  • The GP100 grip frame accepts a wide range of aftermarket grip options, so you can fit the revolver to your hand size or shooting style without machining or permanent modification.
  • If you want a Lipsey's Exclusive big-bore revolver with classic half-lug lines, stainless durability, and the versatility to shoot everything from light cast-bullet practice loads to heavy field-grade hunting rounds, the Ruger GP100 (1770) in 44 Special delivers that package.
The Ruger GP100 Lipsey's Exclusive (1770) in 44 Special is a smart addition for the big-bore revolver shooter, handgun hunter, or field-carry enthusiast who wants a purpose-built, stainless 5-shot platform chambered in one of the most versatile and underappreciated big-bore cartridges available.
