RANGER II 4” Barrel

[grumpyoleman]

Just saw the latest upload of Gunblast.com where Boge was covering the NASGW Expo recently in Orlando.  Amelia was showing the new 4" Barrel version of the Ranger II.  The short video begins about 5:50.  Just started saving for a 2.5 Inch Barrel.  Sigh.

Curious if the barrels are easily interchangeable?

Is it me or does that look a bit heftier than a normal Ranger II... I'm not referring to the barrel. The grip looks larger. Or maybe she just has really small hands 

[Canoeal]

No, small person...Mag frame size with boot grips...

Ok thanks.

[grumpyoleman]

Something looks different about it.  Believe the 2.5" is more proportional...  gotta have one though, terrible weakness for break tops.

And I had to run out of room...............

[theysayimnotme]

The real reason to buy one is that it doesn't have to be on the approved list in the DPRK. That is why I would like to know if the barrels can be easily changed. Even then the price would probably keep me from ever getting one.

At first I thought the grips might be a little longer, but after looking closer, I think they are the standard ones. HOWEVER, the "lug" under the barrel area is longer and a little beefier.

I need one to build Holsters with! (and because I think they are cool!) 

The 4" Barrel Ranger II in a Cross-Draw Holster will be "The Bomb!"

Photo is of the 4" Bbl. Mini Master.... that look but, imagine the bottom tapered a little narrower for the Rangers narrower barrel.

Is there a date set for release yet?

I'm gonna have to see one in person

What was the second sight option she mentioned? I couldn't quite make it out.

Xs sights

Thanks, Joe.

I think it resembles my stainless Bearcats, even more if it had a trigger guard. Looks-wise, no guard makes it out of proportion in height versus length. The extra sight radius is worth it for accuracy, but I'd prefer the 2.5.

Scroll into this for a look at the new 4" Ranger II with the XS sight.

Here's the article photo for easy reference back to it:

[Canoeal]

So yes, the underlug is longer...I like it, but it won't fit in my pocket or pocketbook...$$$

[grayelky]

That has potential to become a regular plinker.....

[Uncle_Lee]

I love it X2.....
If I just had room.

Slide those original rangers my way Unc. That's should give you just the room you need 😉

I couldn't get enough out of that set to pay for a set of 4" Ranger II.

uncle_lee-
Be careful! I could probably be talked into trading a PAIR of 4" Ranger IIs for a pair of original Rangers. And, I might just cover shipping both ways.

Not to hijack but I like that Heritage rough rider carbine Bj's link wow. Want one in .22 mag!

Uncle Lee; you can just give me two of your Pugs and you will have the room for these two new ones. 

[Cary Gunn]

I think what the 4-inch Ranger really needs is a small, adjustable rear sight.  Then it would qualify as a trail/survival piece, a great trapper's pistol, and a fine little plinker.

Happy trails,

The barrels are longer than the Pug's.

The barrels are longer than the Pug's.

So Uncle Lee; are you saying you will have to give me four Minis instead to make up for the longer barrel lengths?

I agree, Grayelky. Definitely a larger dimension under the barrel. Would be nice if she could hold it still!

[Uncle_Lee]

Yep, to make room...

Great Uncle Lee; just let me know when you are ready to ship them to me and I will PM you my address.   

PS: you should definitely have those two new Minis.............. they are so you.

I just read that article and OH YEAH gotta have one of those loonnngggg barrels (even if it has that hook latch, oh well) and one of those Rancher carbines to boot (45 Colt) if possible . I hate looking at gun magazines , they drive my bottom line down , like Unc I have too many already .

[PaducahMichael]

Dang. I'm like the baker who went out of business: I got no dough.
