45 LC Super Black hawk (blue)???

[oldyeller]

I talked to a guy tonight that said he had a super blackhawk blued 5.5 inch forgive my ignorance in never hearing about this if it is true oh great ones.Mike

A 5-1/2" Super Blackhawk would be chambered in .44 Magnum. It would have a Super hammer, fluted cylinder and a steel XR3-RED sized grip frame.

Sez, ".45 LC", in the title of the thread.

Sez, ".45 LC", in the title of the thread.

Yup, then my conclusion is that it ain't a Factory job........

Ruger never made a Super Blackhawk in .45 Colt. There are some 7-1/2" barreled Hunter models in .45 Colt that are rollmarked Super Blackhawk.

Nobody said Ruger's nomenclature makes any sense...

Prob'ly just a reg'lar ol' Blackhawk .45 Colt. I see .357 Blackhawks referred to as "Super Blackhawks" all the time. Meb'be some folks just think their gun is really Super! :lol: Well, Rugers ARE Super guns and it is a Blackhawk so it must be a Super Blackhawk!!! :lol:

 

[oldyeller]

Nope it's blued side of frame say's super blackhawk 45 cal.

Hmmmm... Can you get a pic??? Is the Cylinder fluted or non-fluted? Non-rollmarked too, if non-fluted? Super Hammer? We need a pic!

I won't swear to it but thought I recently saw a Bisley 7 1/2" (not a hunter model) in 45 Colt that I thought was marked Super Blackhawk. Now I may be mistaken on the roll marking because I know they made this model also in a .44 Super.

 

[oldyeller]

Rats the guy sent a pic sometimes you just have to educate it says:
RUGER 45 caliber
New Model Blackhawk
where he got the Super from I have no idea.and the SN is 48-xx555'poop.but it's better then getting a SBH with a 45 cyl in it .thanks gang and the winner is flatgate(I think that guy has ties with Ruger) :lol:

 

[Redstick]

Yep, just a reg'lar ol' Blackhawk .45 Colt. Happens all the time... Super gun though! :lol:

 

[oldyeller]

IN GOD WE TRUST

Of course, we "shooters" like to modify our .45 Colt Blackhawks so they look kinda like a Super....

Merry Christmas!

Whadda ya mean, "kinda"??? This one's even got the non-fruited cylinder:

I still plan to take the roll mark off there. :roll: And then there's another problem... Better go to the Smithing Section for more on this one.
