Steve, I agree! I love the plum-colored Rugers! :D 1962 SBH, Unmodified Original Lockwork Custom Work by Unidentified Shop Bevel’d Crown on 4 5/8” bbl.

Thanks, Ron. Yes, Bill is super knowledgeable. I called him a few years back with Ruger-related questions. He was very helpful and friendly. :D Regards

Thanks John, Wendy, Cholo, Powder Smoke, Gunzo, K22Fan, and akbluz! :D

Ron, That's a fine lookin' Blackhawk, sir. I passed on a .30 Carbine about 2 years ago, from a co-worker. IIRC, my funds were committed to other things at the time. I won't call it a regret, but if a similar opportunity came my way again, I'd not easily let it get away. (It's all about having...

None of my OM Blackhawks had this finish… Then again, they didn’t have steel grip frames, either.

I know, I know. This is nothing new. In fact, it’s over 50 years old. :) Honestly, I think I’ll always own at least a couple of these timeless classics. I came across this example a week ago at the Frisco Gun Club. Since pristine examples are getting harder to find every year, I worked out a...

Chad, I recently sold SF, no logo SBH. SN:2060 Thanks for including it in the record!

Interesting post (with auction link). I hope his widow, family members, or other loved ones were blessed by the results as they cherish his memory. I concur with others, here... there were some deals, and many fair-market prices. The realized prices are always a good indicator of the market.

I have the following ten magazines, shown below, for sale. I will trade any one of them for a single M-41 12-round magazine with orange follower in similar good condition. (M-41 magazines are .22LR.) Magazines are in good working order. Prices include shipping, CONUS. "Free states" not having...

OP, good that you bought the P93. Enjoy! TomD, your video was very well done. Thank you. I love the P-series pistols. My most often carried pistol is my P95. Yes, there are slimmer options out there... I own some of them. There’s just something about Ruger reliability, combined with...

Eagerly awaiting pictures.

Ditto. I’ve never understood this. Especially, in light of “safer” alternatives... I’ve got two early Super Blackhawks (lettered to early 1960 & 1962). The original lockwork won’t be altered; not on my watch. I’ve owned New Models. There is a place for them, too. Just please don’t tell me an...

YES! I agree! That’s a good “look.” I appreciate the shared knowledge here. Thanks, Steve... Thanks, everyone.
