Ruger's Blackhawk is a strong single action built to take heavy loads, and this one is chambered in .45 Long Colt. It has a 7.5 inch barrel, six rounds, a stainless finish and hardwood grips. The long barrel adds sight radius and the stainless finish stands up to the weather.

The Blackhawk is a steel frame revolver designed with modern materials. Ruger built its single actions to be stronger than the old Colts, and many hunters and handloaders use them for heavy .45 Colt loads. Check the manual for what loads suit this revolver, and do not use ammunition that exceeds the specification.

Hunters like a long barreled single action for deer and hogs at close range. A 7.5 inch barrel offers velocity and a steady hold. For the range, it is a good gun for steel and paper.

Hardwood grips give a warm feel. The steel is stainless, so it is easy to clean and rust resistant. Carry it in a good leather holster.

The listing is new. It ships to your FFL dealer for the background check.
