I came across a 1958 blackhawk flattop, 4 5/8 barrel, only a little wear on the end of the barrel. has a turn line. it also has a screw in the top strap near the front. Was that something that was added, or factory? thanks.

Yes I have seen one that some fool drilled the top strap to mount a scope!! Why they didn't use the two factory drilled holes in the barrel, I don't know?????
radicalrod said:Well maybe they got drilled and tapped because they weren't HOT SELLERS and nobody really was worried about collecting them in the day.....lots of stories where you could have bought one new for about 25% of what a box brings these days :lol: :lol: :lol: I am talking about the HAWKEYE of course.....
