Old model Blackhawk .45 Colt, 4 5/8" bbl. BKH-45. No box or papers. Fired perhaps 25 times max. It's beautiful...my pride and joy. I rate this as NRA 96% or better. Cylinder ring is not through the blue. Has been in my safe for 15-20 yrs or so. I'm Florida-retired; bought this NIB at...

PM sent to above poster. Note BIG price drop to $1080. This is a heck of a good price for this gun.

Mernickle belt and holster for .44 Ruger Redhawk. .44 shell slide carrier included. Belt stitching is NOT perfect near buckle, see pix. Total belt length is 44 1/2" to where the buckle is attatched. Strong stiff belt. Buckle and holster are excellent. Mernicle holster made for Ruger...

This is what I use and suggest. Nobody can hold on target for any real length of time. I also suggest the link below, and I feel that this is what I do...or try to do. It shows what you should see. Best regards http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntB1pFyp3Pc I shot this target two days ago; is...

Hi Vern, I've NEVER reloaded 9mm, but I've reloaded thousands of .45 ACP, .45Colt, .44 Special, .44 Mag and I think the results are similar. Federal has "often" been suggested, by the "big boys" in gun-lore, as the favored brass for reloading, as it is consistently the heaviest. I believe...

Well, Buck, I'm not surprised you haven't seen any bullet jump with factory stuff. They're almost hot enough to be Cowboy loads. :) S2

You guys are making me look bad. S2

A VERY nice gun. Good for you. S2

Rugers will hold about any .45 LC cartridge you stick in 'em, unless it's a New Vaquero. Get the original model if you want to hunt black bear with heavy Colt loadings. I think I would reco only the Ruger if you will be reloading for hunting. For Cowboy loads, you have no problem with any of...

I've got this friend.... Heard that one before? Yeah, this buddy has a NIB, unfired, Ruger .357 Maximum, 7 1/2" bbl (I believe) in yellow box, in brown box, and is seeking a price. I told him I'd ask you guys. My old Red Eagle price list gives $760, but it's quite old. I'd guess about...

I went through all of this a year ago. I sent light hit and new cartridges to Winchester/Olin; they said the problem was the gun. Please read my link which I wrote one year ago. The problem is/was a too-short striker spring. Ruger replaced it with a longer spring which maintained a positive...

daddyflea Location: Riesel TX I will start this. I am not sure a Ransom rest very accurately tests the accuracy of a Pistol. I think a pistol held in rested hands is usually more accurate. -------------------------------------------- IMO, sir, you are mistaken. The Ransom Rest comes...

It's a matter of retracting the slide enough, maybe no more than 1/8" to make the gun incapable of firing. S2

Just remember if it's too heavy, she won't carry it. If it's too light, she'll hate the recoil. Avoid the LCP. She'll never hit anything with it and will not like shooting. You wouldn't pick out her bra; don't pick out her gun. Sonnytoo
