Was it up on Gun Broker or something?

Well I'm happy to report that shooting 32 Long and 32 Mag was uneventful in the 32-20 Cylinder. One ruptured case out of the whole bunch. Who cares. After the first shot with 32 Long I actually thought it was a squib! The gun did didn't even move! But alas, there was a hole in the paper. I...

Ha ha. You knew about the consignment gun I bought in Michigan?? :shock: :lol: :mrgreen:

So I just recently acquired a Ruger New Model Blackhawk Buckeye .32 mag / .32-20. The gun came with the .32-20 cylinder, but it was missing the .32 mag cylinder. I'm not having any luck locating a .32 mag cylinder. I contacted Ruger, and they do NOT have any available. The lady at Ruger told...
