    Looking for a set of factory grips to fit a 1958 .44Mag Blackhawk. Also willing to trade the antler handles that are currently on the gun. Looks like they are for XR3 NM Blackhawk as they have 2 alignment holes.

    I just bought a Ruger New Model Blackhawk in .41 Magnum. This is my FIRST firearm. I read that it is supposed to be safe to carry with all 6 rounds in the cylinder because of a bar that remains between the hammer and firing pin. I have seen and noted this bar but, when the hammer is fully...
  3. What's My Firearm Worth
    I inherited this gun years ago from my wife’s grandfather he carried it on his job as an armory driver. He gave me a leather holster, storage bag and the original box with the bag of internals that he said was done at ruger for a recall. I’ve only shot maybe 50- rounds thru it. But it does have...

    There is an Old Vaquero Bisley that I've seen "access" to from a distributor. I've heard that these have some desirable traits. It's a 357 Bisley model, so it's somewhat obscure, but not "too" rare. I was told that these old vaqueros are basically blackhawks with the shaved...

    Old Model BlackHawk s/n 6306 1957. It is very different from the descriptions I am finding in that it has a 5” barrel, with a solid 1/4” rib. It has a non-fluted cylinder. No roll marking on cylinder. It has walnut grips and a wide flat trigger. It seems to most closely fall into the...

    Hi all. I have the itch for a single action. I am torn between a Blackhawk in 45LC or a Super Blackhawk in 44 Magnum. I already load for 44 magnum and 44 spl so that's a plus for the super. I'd like to carry it while hunting so 44mag would do fine and I understand that a 250gr going 1000fps plus...

    Well, it wasn’t that kind of range day at all. Many discouraging words were uttered, repeatedly. Here, for your amusement, another range report. Nice warm day in San Leandro. I was eager to try out the new One Ragged Hole sight I’d installed on my .357 Bisley Blackhawk*. Also took my Beretta to...

    The grips that have all come with my Ruger New Model Blackhawks have been slim, but the replacement grips that I've ordered from Ruger (Ivory #19881 and Rosewood #70046) have both been much thicker - 1.10 inches at the base of the grip for the slim ones, and 1.60 inches, for the thicker ones...

    Hello all, recently picked up a ‘74 Blackhawk, seller mentioned the case is pretty valuable. Looking online, I can’t find ANYTHING close to it. Wondering if any of you may have seen one before. Any input helps, thanks!

    Hi there, I've really got my eyes set on a blued new model Blackhawk, 357, 4.62'' barrel. But I've read that the blued version has the aluminum grip frame and a cheaply "painted" aluminum cylinder pin (if I got that right). Anyone here own the same version but in stainless? According to...

    Hi, Anybody know why there's a 4oz difference between the blued and stainless versions of the Blackhawk 357 (4.62'')? Stainless is heavier by 4oz. Thanks!

    Hi, I just joined the forum so please forgive me if I seem unfamiliar with site protocols. I have an old Blackhawk 44 mag that I purchased used nearly 50 years ago for my wife. It's been carried a lot and the bluing is pretty warn. Also as you can see from the attached photo, has 3rd party...

    Ok guys and galls. If you understood what the caption was talking about, then i need your help. the Colt Buntline was a 45LC that had a sweet 12" barrel. Over time, there were others to take on this model with other pistols being at the 16" and 18" range. some had stocks and some did not. Cool...

    Hi everyone. I just picked up my first blackhawk, but when I took it home I realized the front sight was leaning left. It looks as if the barrel wasnt threaded on enough. It is very noticeable to me and really bugs me. I haven't shot it yet so I dont know how it shoots, but I was wondering if I...

    I have acquired a Ruger .357 Blackhawk. From what I have found I believe I have a 3 screw model. I've tried to find a serial number match but haven't had any luck. There appears to be something that can screw into the top of the frame with one little screw. Doesn't seem to have any wear on the...

    I have a near-new .45ACP cylinder for sale. Up front - this is an older large-frame cylinder - it is too large to fit into the frame window on my New Vaquero .45LC. But, it will fit large-frame .45LC frames, and the old/original Vaquero .45LC frames. It came from a circa-2000 Blackhawk .45/.45...

    My latest acquisition from my favorite pawn shop is this NMBH stainless 357 mag (vintage 1979). The revolver had just come in and was really dirty. But upon closer examination it was in very good condition. It's all cleaned up and pretty, I took it to the range and was pleasantly surprise how...

    Had a special family outing on Thursday and took 6 Rugers. Beretta was represented as well as Sig and a few others. Never know how many shootin' irons you have until you start pulling them out of the safe. :D My honey got to shoot her Mod. 77 Mk II 22-250 for the first time and center-punched...
