I got this 6-1/2" .357 Blackhawk last week but I've been looking at it for about 35 years now. My Father-in-Law gave it to me as he is now in his 80's and doesn't want things to get mixed up if he passes. I had told him years ago if none of his kids wanted the Blackhawk then I'd love to have it, he decided he wasn't even giving them the option and wanted me to have it. Totally stock in every way from 1980 and came in the box with a receipt for $139.00 My Son will get this after I shoot it for (hopefully) many years to come.
