Like a lot of THR members, I have little or no self control when it comes to guns. Lol.
I stopped in a small town Hardware store that I remembered had a small gun counter to see what they might have. They only had 9 guns total. 5 new and 4 consignments.
On the bottom shelf I saw a beautiful
Blackhawk wearing incredible Stag grips in an old ruger box. I asked to see it and realized it was a 45 Colt. Just what I've been looking for. Serial no. dates it to 1977.
The bluing is just about perfect. Not a mark. Very faint turn line on the cylinder. Perfect grips with that Awesome yellow aged color. I removed the cylinder. No carbon fouling, No visible wear, Hammer is beautiful, bore is beautiful with only a little dust at the muzzle. If this gun was ever fired it certainly wasn't fired very much.
I could go on but when I saw the price, well you know the old cliche.
Only one pic for now. I'll probably start a new thread when I clean it up and shoot it.
