Beautiful wood on that rifle!! Love it, and your Dads' initials and birth date as a serial number is a great touch of personalization. He certainly would have been proud, if not reluctant, to carry it. He certainly would have been proud of his son.

I bought the SSM SS 32 HR Mag in 1984, shot less than a box of ammo, transferred from the Texas Panhandle (wide open spaces) to San Antonio (no space at all) so it's been a safe queen for many years now. I have a Blackhawk Buckeye Special 32-20/ 32HR Mag that I recently had the 32 Mag cylinder...

Those are nice ones. With the 32-20 bullet being seated deeper how much difference can you tell between it and the 32 Mag since power capacity is compromised?

It's &125.00 now, including a dip in the blueing vat. How did yours work out for you?

Thanks for the headsup. Hadn't thought about that solution.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. It is appreciated. I'll probably send the 32 Mag cylinder I have to Bowen and have it reamed. Still have a 3 caliber gun and much cheaper that way.

I kind of had an idea I'd have to do that. Looking in Ruger all I was seeing was 8 shot revolvers. Appreciate your input.

My Blackhawk is a six hole cylinder so I'd have to have a six hole cylinder.

Has Ruger produced a blue version of the .327 Mag in the Blackhawk? I have a Blackhawk "Buckeye Special" with the .32 Mag/.32-20 and am interested in adding a .327 Mag cylinder to the mix if one can be found.

Long story so bear with me. In the early 80's my brother in law brought me 2 blue 4 inch security sizes to do an action job on. He bought them for his twin daughters. Few years later one of them passed away and my brother in law got the SS back. Fast forward - brother in law developed...

Joe Miller, the forum member who made the cylinder bags, got in touch with me and I bought two of the bags. He did a great job on them and they fit perfectly. Anybody needing one can't go wrong with Joe. Unfortunately I don't have picture capabilities so can't show them.

I'm sure you're right about selling it, and yes, they are making them again. Not sure what the difference might between the two models, of any.

I have a Redhawk 41 Mag I purchases new in 1984. Stainless steel 5 1/2 bbl. I have the box and papers and since it's had less than 50 rounds fired and it's been a safe queen I'd consider it at 98%. My Thirty Sixth Edition of Blue Book values it at $865.00 not including collector value. Question...

That is one fine looking firearm to practice on. Good picture too.

Thanks, Robb. I've book marked this site. Appreciate it.
