Seems to me every photo posted here abouts lately, as well as other gun forums and Facebook pages, all the world has gone for the birdshead grip for their Ruger Blackhawks.
I had one round butt centerfire revolver, a S&W Model 625 in .45 ACP and after shooting it went to grips to adapt it to square butt. With most revolvers, I find that flare at the butt helps support the gun muzzle for better hold/aiming. I have tried, and shot, some of those old birdshead grips on the Colt Lightning Models and found them not as comfortable to shoot as the old plowhandle grift of the Single Action revolver.
Am I missing something here? Or just too hardheaded to change?
