The Deerfield is a brand new design and has little in common with the Model 44. The Ruger Model 44 was replaced by the Ruger Deerfield Carbine introduced in 2000 and produced until 2006. Ruger does not offer any parts support for the Model 44. The rifle was discontinued in 1985 due to high production costs.
The design influenced the smaller and more popular Ruger 10/22 model chambered in. Designed as a close range carbine for deer hunting in dense woods, Ruger released the Model 44 Carbine in 1961 as the " Deerstalker", a moniker it used until 1962 due to a lawsuit brought by the Ithaca Gun Company.
