What is the model number of the Ruger 8 shot revolver in .327. Scarcer than an honest man in Washington DC to be sure. Thanks.

ON my want list. I figure next years has to be better than the last year money wise. So, I thought I'd be prepared.
 
MaxMan,
The stainless Blackhawk with 5.5" barrel and 8 round capacity is catalog # KBN-3275 and Model # 00353.
Obviously it will also fire the 32 H&R Magnum as well as both the long and short 32 S&W cartridges. If memory serves me, I believe these hit the market around 2010 and were produced for just a few years, but with a short run of "clean-up" guns following in about 2015 or 16. hope this is helpful.
RENE indicates the earliest serial number as 38-00096 (2010 ship date) and i also saw that total production was in the ballpark of 3,700 pcs.

You already have the answer, excellently given. I'll just add it should also include currently in production and model GP100 as well. Hello Ruger?

Seems my records show one model as a KBKH-3275,, ???

And I have notes on one with a serial number of 38-04357 spotted by me. So,, if they kept that model in continuous production and taking away 96 guns,, that would put production at 4261 at least. Maybe?????
