I was looking over the new 50th Anniversary Ruger Blackhawk on the Ruger website, thinking I'd like one. Then I opened the PDF instruction manual and saw the new HAMMER SPRING SAFETY they designed in to it. There are special instructions on how to drill through the left grip to turn it on/off w/o removing the grip if you want. They even include a special lock to lock the cylinder apart from the frame if you want. :banghead:
I hope Ruger is not going to put this on all their revolvers in the future. That safety sucks and I've lost all interest in the 50th Anni. special.
I checked and none of the other Blackhawks have the safety in '05...so far.
Funny thing is you have to dig into the manual to even know it exists...nothing about it on the web pages.
