Does anyone know where to obtain the yellow disks that are on the back of ruger blackhawks when new?
 
Chief, give me a rough size of the outside diameter of the cylinder, as well as the inner hole diameter, and I have a bunch of them here to go through for you...send me an e-mail
they came in different diameters, as well as colors............for what they are asking for, I'll give you 5 of them!!

You can't do better than that!
 
Yep, only need one. All of my other Rugers had them but not my new Blackhawk....
 
I throw mine away.
Never had the slightest use for one.
What do you do with yours?
Denis
 
Hmmm.
I have maybe three spare cylinders, I take a very simple approach.
Just stick 'em on the shelf in a safe, naked. :)

I guess if you're more pick....er, more organized than I am, those discs would work there. :)

I don't have a real use for it. It's just that I have always kept whatever came in the box. This time the disk was missing. Silly maybe, I guess. People used to throw away the boxes too and look what they cost now.
 
I toss the discs & donate the padlocks to the local sheriff's office for their free lock program.

I need to junk some boxes, too. :)
Denis
 
Chief, it is on its way to you..............MOST folks we know, keep "whatever" in its original box, heck thats what got me into the box business years ago, back in the 60's I got hundreds of boxes out of the trash at the local gun shows starting at the Chagrin Falls armory, people would buy a gun and walking out the door, toss the box, whatever, in the trash barrel, boy, were/are they STUPID........ 8) :roll: :wink:
 
I simply have no room for a box for every gun I own. :)
Need to cull some of those boxes out.
IB1 of those stupids. :)

Never liked the bulky plastic box when it came into existence, I'm sure I have boxes for guns I no longer own floating around in the basement.
I try to pass on the box when I sell a gun, but can't always find the right box.

As far as retaining what comes in those boxes, gun & manual are all I care about there.
Just me.

......goes back in the box with everything else that I'm not gonna be using.....box goes on a shelf.
 
Mr DPris, knowing kinda what you be interested in and the stuff you like, I would take ANY of your "empty" old, unused boxes ANYTIME..... 8) :roll:

I trade for as well as buy , most all boxes that are out there....one mans 'junk', IS another mans preasure :wink:
 
Found a gunless blue plastic S&W .41 Mag box. :)
Not to derail, but....

Worth anything?

Probably, don't know off the top of my head. You got any Security Six boxes from say the mid 80s? Need one for a 2 3/4 inch stainless..... :D

Thanks Rugerguy!
 
Four Ruger grey plastics, the one Smith blue plastic, one Colt blue plastic.
One Ruger box has the old cute little toy padlock.

PM me, they'll be going in the garbage tomorrow otherwise.
No Security-Six, long gone on my 1976-er there. :)
Denis
 
If you're offering, I'd like one of the grey plastics for a Ruger DA revolver. One of the local ranges has a rule about uncasing at the firing line and I find that buying used has me with an excess of guns without boxes. PM coming.
 
Here's one use (different caliber indications on each side, for convertibles):
