    Help value 10" 44mag Flattop Blackhawk

    Great thanks... I presume ok to post pictures here then... It's certainly in great shape but I wouldn't say it's "collector quality" by that definition... I'll start another thread with pictures... thanks again.

    WTB Gunfighter grips for Vaqueros

    I hear ya... these don't have to be Eagle grips... maybe the "gunfigther" name implies Eagle but I didn't mean to... I know it's a long shot but we are all guilty of buying stuff to try and then throwing it in a draw and forget about it... I might get lucky.. 8)
