Thanks Ruger!

I sent in a Ruger Blackhawk 3screw to Ruger because the recoil plate(firing pin bushing in the frame) had recessed into the frame far enough to lock up the gun when shooting it. I knew it would be converted but oh well at least it would shoot and I could re convert it.
I just got off the phone with them. They told me the gun was not repairable it had excessive head space and the cylinder was out of specs. Crystal informed me that they would like to replace the gun with a new stainless or blue modern production model. Let’s see a new stainless BH for a broken reblued nonshooting 3 screw? DONE! Love Ruger’s customer service!
This was a week and a half ago. This beauty came to my LGS today! I had the set of grips laying around waiting for the right gun. This IS the right gun! Oh it’s a 357 mag by the way.....

Aim higher, or get a bigger gun.

Those Blackhawks are GREAT shooters; they're being imported back here after MANY years (Late '80s probably) and some have already been pre-paid by SA enthusiasts that drolled over these revolvers for years; I was lucky enough to get one like yours some years ago and despite not liking lighter bullets, is quite accurate even with factory .38s
