Rare Lipsey’s Distributor Exclusive Ruger No. 1-S .475 Linebaugh Rifle

Ruger No. 1-S .475 Linebaugh – Lipsey’s Exclusive

20" Barrel | Satin Blued | Lipsey’s Exclusive | One of Only 103 Produced | New in Box | Model 21311

OVERVIEW

Offered here is an exceptionally scarce Lipsey’s Exclusive Ruger No. 1-S chambered in .475 Linebaugh, model 21311, serial number 134-51262.

Introduced in 2017 and discontinued in 2019, this special-run No. 1 was produced only in very small batches, with total production reported at just 103 rifles. That limited production makes this one of the more unusual modern Ruger No. 1 chamberings and a particularly desirable piece for collectors of Lipsey’s Exclusives, big-bore sporting rifles, and limited-production Rugers.

The rifle pairs Ruger’s classic falling-block single-shot action with the formidable .475 Linebaugh cartridge and a compact 20-inch barrel. Finished in satin blue, it retains the traditional lines and balance that have made the No. 1 a favorite among collectors and hunters for decades.

This example is old stock but new in the original factory box, with only very minor handling marks noted from storage and handling. No scope rings are present.
