New to me Blackhawk
Re: New to me Blackhawk
I sent an inquiry to Ruger abt a new cylinder in .45 acp. They responded that I can get one factory fit to the gun. Will cost aprox $175. I hope to get one but will have to wait for a while.

I have one in 44 mag. that I bought in the 70's. Heavy but very accurate. I had to change the grips. The stock ones just did not fit my hand. Enjoy.

I have heard that the 9mm conversion was not as accurate as the 357. Probably due to difference in bore size.
I see you are from Wisconsin. Anywhere near Elkhorn?? Am interested in The Beast From Bray Road. Sounds like something I would like to check out.

Nope. That's way to the south in the tropical part of the state. I'm way north, just a bit north of Rhinelander. We have our own demon of the woods, up here, the ferocious Hodag. it would eat that Beast for a snack. 
The native Ojibwe, up here, have their own evil spirit of the woods in the windigo. When you hear the windigo calling your name, get your affairs in order. Your days are numbered.

I bought a Bisley that came with one. The ACP cylinder is fun to shoot in that gun. Its also very accurate especially with some of the 200 gr swc bullets. No recoil at all

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Check VTI gun parts. I bought a .45 ACP cylinder for my Uberti for about $120. Timing and alignment were good right out of the box. Only needed to shave down the bushing a bit. VTI has great persoanlized customer service too!

Re: New to me Blackhawk
I'll definitely check into that. Thanks!
Edit: I checked their website and they don't list Ruger parts.

Might drop them an email and see if one of the cylinders they have for the brands they list would still fit a Ruger. mail@vtigunparts.com
They were fast and helpful at responding to my questions.

Re: New to me Blackhawk
North Country Gal,
Looks like that Hodag would be an interesting creature to deal with!!!
I did not know that WI had a tropical section. But then again,what do I know. You probably have snow on the 4th of July!!!
Up at the cabin in Jackman ,ME last Sept 1st,I was getting sleet!!!
