Ruger 450/400 #1
Has anyone seen one for sale? I'm really hot for one but my dealer can't seem to locate any.

I was told by a Ruger rep that they would not be available until mid to late summer.

...and my custom .450/400 3" No.1 is not for sale.

The Ruger #1's in 450/400 are now available on a limited basis; dealers are beginning to receive a few.

Also, unless I miss my guess, the 9.3's are probably gone, at least for a while (maybe forever, like the .404 J).

I was able to get a 9.3 earlier. I'm anxious to compare them since the 400 is the "tropical" style and the 9.3 is the old "S" style. The 9.3 is very sleek and handles like a dream!
