Blackhawk 30 Carbine!

[DRAM40A1]

Snuck another Blackhawk in the gun room when the Mrs. wasn't looking. LOL
I went to the Waxahachie gun show this morning and found an as new in box 30 carbine from 2013. Got it for $675 out the door, then sold a pair of Hogue grips off of it for $50 before leaving the show. Maybe eventually I'll find an old model but this scratched my itch today!

 

[contender]

Nice find!

We like to jokingly called that version of the Blackhawk as a "Loudenboomer!"

Good caliber,, and I'll keep my OM .30 carbine in favor of that NM type!

 

[DRAM40A1]

It already has more rounds through it today than the last 10 years! LOL

 

[DRAM40A1]

And yes, it's LOUD.

Welcome to the .30 Carbine club.

 

[rugerguy]

yes, you got a good one and it's really..." eargunsplitloudinboomer"...

 

[Diabloman]

Buckeye Model....? NICE

 

[JCK]

A .357magnum firing 40% more of the same powder not LOUD?!

Ever fired a .357 4" with 21.0gr of H110? At NIGHT?

Do so, then tell me a little.30Carbine is loud....
.30Carbine loud? Maybe compared to a .22lr or .38spl.
Not when compared to something in its league.

 

[powder smoke]

Gotta get me one of those been wanting one for some time now!

Nice find!

How is the Waxahachie gun show? I wouldn't mind going to a smaller gun show sometime.

 

[Thumbcocker]

With a 120 or so grain boolit and 2400 i have not found the .30 carbine Blackhawk to be especially offensive with regular hearing protection.

This was the first time I've gone to Waxahachie show. It's pretty small but I did find something. LOL
I did spend about the same amount of time driving to and from the show as I did looking around.
Saw quite a few people trying to dump their pistol braced firearms.

 

[DRAM40A1]

I'll tell y'all what's surprisingly loud. That's a NAA Derringer in 22 Magnum!

Welcome to the the 30 carbine cult.

I Brass'd & Super'd mine. Fun flat speedy shooter.

I have to do something similar. I'm really fond of the Bisley grip frame but may try one of Ronnie Wells offerings.

 

[needsmostuff]

I Super'd mine too! Mild recoil makes it the only Blackhawk that that grip will not punish me on.
Plus, the extra steel weight balances that long snout nicely.

Loud? Nah . Not if you load it like a revolver round. Pistol powders and cast bullets, it's a big ole
pussycat.
Load it with rifle ammo? Yeah , it gets pretty bright.
If shooting lead check your cylinder throats, they can be pretty wonky.

 

[DRAM40A1]

I've only shot surplus Lake City 77 through it. Looking around to figure out which bullets and dies to purchase. Maybe Missouri Bullet Company 115 RN?

 

[G2]

If your considering a Ronnie Wells offering,,, Consider the #5 Keith. This is one that I did on a 327M- S7. I'm really liking it and the 327M & 30carbine are very close.
Best of both worlds,
Straight Back Strap & Bisley, just a very small tad shorter Bisley.

 

[DRAM40A1]

Very nice, thank you for sharing.

 

[Wyandot Jim]

Very nice and you will really enjoy shooting it. With the new Models you can also shoot 32-20s and 32H&R Mag.
I find it a little difficult to remove some of the military spent brass. Reloading can also be a little finicky with the head space????
