An OM Blackhawk w/brass grip frame in .41 Magnum just went for $2500 at auction in MN. It was a police auction gun... I don't know how the gun happened to end up "in custody."

I'm typically a NM "accumulator," vs. an OM "collector." I did a (very) little research on this gun, looks like there is a good chance it was a factory brass grip frame.
I was watching the auction, hoping to score a deal. Obviously there were a couple of bidders who thought it was something special... :mrgreen:
I'd love to hear what some "collectors" might have to say about this gun and the price it went for.
Thanks, -Howie
