I haven't found one I don't like. Must buy more.
Which Blackhawk is your favorite?

Used to think that till they came out with the Bisley models. I know some folks swear by them, but to me the feel funky and look ugly.

More power to the people that like them, but I agree with funky and ugly...

Yes I know. I wouldn't mind having a Bisley in .22LR. Would be a bit much in the larger magnum calibers.

Try shooting a .475 or .500 with anything but a Bisley frame and you'll quickly change your tune.

They are absurdly good revolvers. My 45 is my most accurate centerfire handgun. But yesterday I shot my 357 a lot and realized it is probably my favorite centerfire handgun. They are just that good. I also enjoyed my 22 Single Six and 32 H&R Single Six yesterday. Does anyone know if they ever made a 32 caliber Blackhawk?

There were Blackhawks made in 32-20 with convertible cylinder for .32 H&R.
Also briefly there was a .327 Federal BH made, but it was dropped and later the smaller Single Seven came out in .327.

I carry a 357 mag Blackhawk 6 1/2" stainless as a sidearm when I hunt. I love the gun.

Blackhawk
Hands down it would be this one in 10MM - 38/40 'BUCKEYE SPECIAL' I have it's mate in 32/20- 32MAG w/ it's black holster, and a few others, but to pick one, this would be it. Ivory was added later.

I had a 10.5 inch with the square trigger guard before I started handloading. It busted my knuckle up shooting it so I traded it off. I could have loaded that up with more comfortable 44 spl or lighter 44 mags if only I knew.
It's OK. I am getting a flat top tomorrow. So I'll be back with that picture soon. Here's my old heavy barrel hog leg in the attachment image.
Got this one today

The older Vaquero on the Blackhawk frame in 44 magnum.
357 4.75
I have the very first handgun my father bought. It is a blackhawk 357 with the 4.75 bbl. Of course it has had a few thousand rounds through it. Both 38 and 357. it has killed coyotes, deer prairie dogs ect... I have used it many years now and although it needs re-blued and a little wear it goes bang and most always hits where I point it. But then again I had a single six which I fired thousands of rounds through it for practice. lots of game fell too both.

Perhaps you mean your first.

It's not a Black Hawk but I have a .327 Ruger with a 4 inch bbl. It is
really nice. Lots of zip but not much recoil.
