Blackhawk
My "Old Model" beater. Got this 20 years ago with the nice sambar grips on, and while it has some uglies on the outside (small pits on a section of the cylinder), the chambers and bore are minty and it shoots just fine. The cylinder gap is between .001" and .002"! Has all the features of a flatgate (square ejector rod head, long-throw notched housing, serial number range, etc.) but has a factory round gate installed and seems like it's been on it a long time based on the patina matching the frame. Never sent back for the transfer bar upgrade, so this is a load-one-skip-one-load-four proposition. One of my more prized Rugers...
