Blackhawk
I ran across a Ruger Blackhawk Old Model today at the local gunshop, it's definitely what one would call a shooter. It's in .357 with a 4 5/8" barrel, not a flat top, I think it's late 60's. The grips are original, but worn. The finish is about 60%, well worn but it's honest holster wear, no abuse. The gun was never sent back to have the transfer bar added and the action is super slick. The only thing is that the rear sight blade is missing, the rear sight is there, just the blade itself needs replacing. The rifling is good, nice bore. The shop wants $300 for it, worth the money?
