That was a good deal for someone. But reading the description the seller put forth,, I think is a bit off. He states that there were about 200 made. There were more than 200 made.
Neat guns, 8 shots, stainless and all,,, however loaded up they are HEAVY.
I acquired one when they first came out,,, and that is when I became a fan of the Single Seven platform for the 32/327 caliber. Just seems to fit better.

I’m a 327 Fed fan. I would like to give the Blackhawk a try. After shooting the Single Seven I’m afraid the weight would bother me. At the same time it should be a great shooter.
Consider myself fortunate to have found the SS, Blackhawk would be a unicorn level find.

I bought a Single Seven for $750 new several years ago and then I found a Birdshead and bought it. I liked the Birdshead better so I sold the Single Seven for $1,250. Two guys got in a bidding war. Great guns.

IIRC, I paid $558.99 plus tax& shipping for mine new in 2018.

The birdshead and Bisley are on my list… but I don’t want to pay the current going prices… maybe someday.
I didn't get that particular one, but I rectified a former mistake by picking this one up recently...It's NOT going anywhere, anytime soon.

They made 3,729 of the stainless .327 Blackhawk. A huge number for no more than they are seen, but there you have it... that is the quantity.

Chad, any idea how many of those were the "pinto" model? I do not own, just curious?
Thanks, Todd
As noted, the .327 BH is on the heavy side. But it shoots well.
Ballistically, it's on par with the BH in .30 Carbine, but with two more chambers. I can get just a little more velocity out of the .30 Carbine, but that one has 2 more inches of barrel. I suspect if both wore the same length barrel, they would be ballistic twins.
