This is the way my Super Blackhawk looked then:

And as it looks now:

This gun has had 16,595 rounds fired through it.

Hmmmm. Make that twenty, no, thirty, years ago. How time flies!

That is neat Bob. The gun looked great then, as it does now. Who case hardned the frame? Looks great whoever did it.

Doug Turnbull did the color case finish. I had sent the gun to Dave Clements for some more work, and he forwarded it to Turnbull.



I like this gun.

Great looking Super, but just so you know......1982 was 40home years ago, not 10. Shows how much time flies when you're having fun!!!!

Looks like my old math failed...LOL... Maybe that's why we went to new math!

16,595 rounds tells us something about RUGER O.M. SA's we already knew they are GREAT GUNS :!: :!: sure looks good -- been a good friend to you

Fine looking gun Bob. I bet you are only one of a very few that changed a SBH hammer for a regular BH hammer. Most want to swap the other way.

Don't know how to tell you this but 10 years ago was 2002. 1982 was something like 30 years ago. :roll:

Hey 1982 was a good Year! It was not that long ago was it? My 3rd Son was born that year! J/S

Looked good "then"....looks even better "now". Thanks for the photos Bob.

I thought all that shooting, and heating up of the gun caused it to look all plum/rosy!

Well, suits me better that way. My thumb just sort of "hooks" that hammer a little better.
