Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Help finding the one?
That got away? not a chick, but a gun (duh). I have been looking for a Ruger Alaskan 44 forever. This is the one that I almost bought 10 times when you could find them in store but life got in the way? I am ready to buy, new or used, at a reasonable price (not MSRP x 10, just like the 21? Bronco).

Keep lowball bidding, eventually you'll get one. That's how I finally got a CZ at a decent price. It took several months.
I almost bought an Alaskan 454 Casull. Then I woke TFU.

Last time I had a craving and was looking for a hard to find item I broke down and used Armslist. I know, but if you focus on only businesses, like pawn shops and do your due diligence to see if they’re for real it can be helpful.

It’s up the road. Not sure if it’s the right one you’re looking for. But might be worth the phone call.
Was just looking at one on the OK Shooters Forum: https://www.okshooters.com/threads/r.../#post-3661599

Happy hunting.
I?d just tie a cinder block onto my belt and walk around pretending I had one.
Thanks all for the insights. I really want to buy local and try to avoid anything like gun broker or similar.

Great gun.
Its what I carry up here. Tried a Glock 10mm and found out the round I had chambered for a season was a dud when I was at the range. Tried a 500 magnum, but that thing is just too damn heavy to carry around fishing, hunting, etc. Went back to the Ruger Alaskan that I bought for the move up here and havent looked back.
When you find one, and if its something you plan on carrying around the wilds of Highlands Ranch for rabid squirrel protection, I suggest the Kenai chest holster.
