    Let`s not forget the 30 carbine Blackhawk 7 1/2". Talk about a 32 magnum plus!

    I just purchased a 41 Magnum 5" Blackhawk at our local gun show for a very reasonable price... too good to pass up. The hard part was leaving a 10" 357 Maximum Blackhawk sitting on the table. Both guns were pristene, not even a scratch on them. I traded my old blackhawks in on Redhawks 20 or more years ago. I've been shooting 357 and 44 Vaqueros for some time now and I've found I can shoot the single actions better than double actions; they point better and 5" models have good balance.

    Anyway, I couldn't pass on a 41 Magnum single action Blackhawk to go with my 41 Magnum Marlin 1894FG and my 30 year old 41 Magnum Redhawk.

    All of the Ruger revolvers are good in my book.

    My SS SBH has a 5½ barrel and fluted cylinder and is joy to shoot. The trigger guard is rounded and it only took a few instances of knocked knuckles to cure my bad holding habit. My only regret with this revolver is I live in an eastern city, not out in big sky country where I could use it every day.

    Cheers

    Got two BH...both 4 5/8. One is an all original Flattop that I bought new over 40 years ago and the other an OM Vaquero .44 in stainless. Either one will easily shoot "minute of bowling pin" at 50 yds if I do my part.
