SOLD Ruger Blackhawk Stainless 10mm Auto x .40 S&W Like New with 6.5" barrel

[weaselmeatgravy]

These were not around for long, maybe a couple years and were hard to find even before they were discontinued. Like new 10mm Blackhawk in stainless with 6.5" barrel. Looks to have been fired some but not much. Has box, papers, and the second cylinder in .40 S&W which is stamped "40" to tell them apart. Ruger site says it shipped in 2019. Before Ruger stopped using catalog numbers on the labels in about 2018, these were model KBN106X.

Withdrawn, moved to GunBroker $1400 shipped FFL to FFL

Didn't know they even made these. Were these a special run for one of the distributers?

I remember Lipsey's had them, but I don't recall if it was their exclusive. They also made a 4-5/8" barrel version.

They were Lipsey exclusives. I emailed Jason a while back to inquire about quantities produced. According to him there were 1175 of the 4 &5/8" 1448 of the 6 &1/2" produced.

When they first had them in 2017, I bought myself a consecutive pair of the 6.5" guns, but they didn't have any 4-5/8" at that time. I never was able to order a new 4-5/8" but got a used one a few years ago. I should dig that one out and check for the catalog number on the label. My pair are 38-6xxxx guns from 2017 with the catalog number, this one is 38-8xxxx from 2019 without the catalog number, and my 4-5/8" is a 38-7xxxx gun that comes back as 2018. Might help narrow down when Ruger stopped using catalog numbers.

Love this one for sure, the bad part is I have about 5K rounds of 40sw.

I have a 4 5/8 version and I have seen some on GB bring crazy money. Pretty interesting on the production numbers, I guess they are a little rare.

I like my pair.

Got the 4-5/8" when they came out.
