Congratulations! My BH convertible 45 and my SBH 44 magnum are two of my favorite revolvers. :)

Why thank you. I've had over 6 super Blackhawks over the years. I was 19 (federal law says you can own a handgun at 18 just can't buy from an FFL dealer) bought my first handgun at a private sale from a gentleman at the bass pro in San Antonio. Concealed carried it in a leather shoulder holster I got off eBay. Those were the days.

My mother in law qualifies as "big, dangerous game" so there's that... In all seriousness it would make a dandy defensive gun in a pinch with a .45 Colt hollow point.

LOL! Those are some good comments there.

Nice picku! Beautiful and functional. I’m curious how the recoil is with full tilt loads.

Me too. We live in a very low-crime area and have large dogs, so I'm okay with just keeping a handgun or two accessible. Otherwise it would be the Remington 870. :)

I live in a rather low crime area as well. I keep a .38 on me most of the day but the shotgun is right by the bed. My brother in law lives with us (he's 15) and he has a 20 ga in case I'm not around he's able to handle the "situation"

Don't want to cause too much thread drift but in addition to some strategically placed handguns (sorry but don't have any single actions in the mix), we also have a couple of go-to shotguns available in 12 and 20 gauge for home defense.

I literally bought a Maverick 88 about 2 weeks back. Good gun stock is too long though. Put 50 shells of buck through it to put it through some cycling action need to shoot the hell out of it though the action is very gritty. IMG_20190323_111402436.jpg

I am glad that I am not the only one who thinks teenagers can have their own defensive arms. Good show!

Nice Ruger! I have a .475 Blackhawk made by the BFR guy before the BFR hit the market.

I'd love to get into .475/.480 but .45 Colt is what I already had, so .454 is what I went to. I'm not fooling myself, I know I'll probably never visit Alaska or even Yellowstone, I'm just a recoil junkie have been ever since my first gun that i ever bought (.44 mag sbh when I was 19). I believe it is irresponsible to have children and not introduce them to firearms as young as possible my son is 5 and he has been taught about guns. We are getting him a .22 heritage revolver for his bday, of course it will stay in my safe. But when he is of an age (13-16 depending on the parents view and the kids maturity level) I see no reason why they cannot have their own firearm. I'd trust my Brother in law with a gun over most people at the local range anyhow.
