First Single Action
« on: July 18, 2010, 04:41:44 PM »
I bought my first single action today as a birthday present.
Ruger Super Blackhawk 4 5/8 stainless in 44 mag.
It is my first single action second Ruger which is a Super Redhawk.
Pic is for reference. I'll post pics later.

What is your intended use for the gun?  I believe you will be a happy SA owner regardless but I am curious.

After an initial "break in" I'll hunt with it a few times or just an extra carry
for when I do hunt this year...hopefully.
I had went to the outfitters for some reloading supplies and got to looking
at guns,not intent on buying one but just couldn't pass this one up.
Might even send it off later for a Linebaugh conversion.

Crap, now I want one to send to Linebaugh.  Going to have to save my pennies for one.
