1975 Super Blackhawk

Got my eyes on a Super Blackhawk at a local shop. Shop owner says it was made in 1975. High polish blue. 7.5 inch barrel. Pre-warning. Has box and all paperwork. Looks like it has been stored & not shot......very very little use, if any. Not even a ring on the cylinder. Beautiful revolver. I don't really need another 44, but this thing is just calling my name. How much should I put into it & not feel bad about it? I'd like to at least feel like I got a good deal on it! It is marked $450.....what say ye?

Price is in line with what they are asking here in CA for later ones that have been shot and show some wear.

It's worth that, I'd do it

I caved.....it's now laid away.....

That's a fair price for one in that condition. I paid $350 for one a couple years ago. Also a 1975 with box and papers, but mine had been shot quite a bit. I was tickled to get it for that price.

great snag! You certainly couldnt get a new one for that price---and those early pre warning models just look "right" with just the barrel address.

good move!

You would have to ad $100 in the shops around here for one .

WOW ! That was quick......
When they call....sometimes you have to just answer the call !

Yup....I learned a long time ago that if you snooze, you lose....especially in this shop. If you want it, you better grab it......lol. I'll post a pic or three when I finally get it home.

Well, got 'er home today. Not much on taking pictures, but here she is!

Looks good!

Very nice !

Congrats on a beauty !

Some fine big iron. Those old Texas Rangers who packed those Walkers and Dragoons would dismount and stand in line to get a look at that.
