Super Blackhawk
Super Blackhawk
Bought a 44 mag Super Blackhawk with 7.5" barrel. Tight and in real nice condition, sweet trigger, cool grips, glossy finish, LGS says it is from 1968. Picked it up and couldn't let it go, it feels good in my hands. I have dies and material for ammo so I guess I have to get some together this weekend.

Re: Super Blackhawk
That date would make it an Old Model (three screw). That vintage had a nicer finish and bluing than any of the current models. Great find.

Re: Super Blackhawk
Nice, and I do like those grips. Congrats.
I have a newer stainless model that came scoped.
Was the first handgun that I killed a deer with.

Re: Super Blackhawk
Great looking gun, but the critter feet have me intrigued. Large cat?

Re: Super Blackhawk
Nice Find. I too love the grips but might be afraid to shoot with them on the gun.
I am a fan of single actions as well, and I recently scored a pair a Blackhawks.
One in 357 Maximum, and another in 30 Carbine.
Both were in excellent condition with the 357 Maximum being NIB.
(It wasn't for long.) I had no plans to keep it as a collectable and the seller made me promise to shoot it, so I did.
The 30 Carbine had been shot once or twice, but was still flawless. I shot it as well. The wife said it was a cannon.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...

Nice guns for sure Marine and Ernie. Cowboy guns rule. There was a Super Blackhawk at my local gun store for sale not to long ago. Think they wanted 750 for it

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.......

Bengal cat, he is not so tall but he is long. He is always interested when I get guns out so his feet are in most pictures.RetiredSeabee wrote: ↑Fri Mar 03, 2023 7:50 pmGreat looking gun, but the critter feet have me intrigued. Large cat?
