About Ruger Blackhawk

Classic Lines, Classic Feel, Modern Features. The Ruger New Model Blackhawk is the most advanced single-action revolver ever made.

Convertible models come equipped with an extra cylinder and are popular with shooters who appreciate the classic single-action revolver but opt for the versatility of being able to use more than one caliber in their handgun.

Ruger Blackhawk: The Classic Revolver That Has Stood the Test of Time

The Ruger Blackhawk is a six-shot, single-action revolver manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co, Inc. first introduced in 1955. The Blackhawk has become one of the most popular revolvers because of its durability, reliability, and accuracy. It has stood the test of time and has a classic design that appeals to both collectors and shooters.

Ruger Blackhawk

The Blackhawk is made using high-quality materials, including a stainless steel or blued alloy steel frame paired with a cold hammer-forged barrel for increased accuracy. The traditional Western-style grip is made from sturdy black polymer, and the gun features an adjustable rear sight and a fixed front sight.

One of the most unique features of the Blackhawk is its transfer bar safety system. This system prevents accidental discharge even if the gun is dropped or bumped. The transfer bar goes into place when the hammer is cocked, transferring energy from the trigger to the firing pin, allowing the gun to fire. Otherwise, the firing pin remains safely at rest, making it impossible to accidentally discharge.

The Blackhawk comes in several different models, including the standard Blackhawk, the New Model Blackhawk, the Super Blackhawk, and the Blackhawk Hunter. The standard Blackhawk has a barrel length of 4.62 inches, while the New Model Blackhawk has a shorter 4.50-inch barrel. The Super Blackhawk has a longer barrel length of 7.5 inches, while the Blackhawk Hunter has a 7.5-inch barrel with a non-fluted cylinder and a Bisley grip for improved accuracy.

The Blackhawk is also available in several different calibers, including .357 Magnum, .44 Magnum, .45 Colt, and .30 Carbine. The .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum are popular choices for hunting and self-defense, while the .45 Colt and .30 Carbine are great for target shooting and plinking.

The Blackhawk is known for its ease of use and accuracy. Its single-action trigger pull is light and crisp, making it easy to shoot accurately. The adjustable rear sight and fixed front sight provide a clear view of the target, allowing for precise aiming.

Overall, the Ruger Blackhawk is a classic revolver that has stood the test of time. It is a reliable, accurate, and durable revolver that is perfect for shooting and collecting. With its wide range of models and calibers, there is a Blackhawk for everyone.

I own two, a1966 three screw and 1974 new model. The lighter three screw is my field piece. Seems the early models are made better. Wish Ruger would offer a 7 1/2 inch .357 barrel. Blackhawks are very accurate, reliable revolvers. I will not part with my
