I searched the forums and found many Ruger threads, but no photo thread for the various single action models. So, show us your Blackhawks, Single-Sixes, Bearcats, Super Blackhawks and Old Army model revolvers!

My Ruger Single Action collection now consists of these fine shooters, all wearing vintage Herrett's Shooting Star grips except for one!

2005 Lipsey's Flattop New Model Blackhawk .44 Special, 5.5 inch, with Hogue Cowboy grips. Can't find Herrett's for the New-Old XR3 frame!

This is my favorite NMBH. It is a 5.5" SS .45 Colt with a .45 ACP cylinder modified to also take .45 AR. It has Eagle Gunfighter checkered grips because I typically use this gun with mouse fart CAS type loads. Both cylinders have been reamed and it is very accurate with both. For range work, I typically use light charges of Titegroup in the AR cases.

Here's a couple of my favorites.

Ruger Vaquero in .44 Magnum: (This gun is awesome! The more I handle it, the more I like It. It's a serious chunk of steel, but I like that.)

Old Model Ruger Super Blackhawk with rare MR3-DB brass frame. Somebody tricked this one out.

One of my favorite old and prized possessions....my Uncle's Ruger .22 Single Six. Countless hours of shooting and walks in the woods have taken a toll. Still shoots like a dream....tight as a drum, and carrys up well.

First handgun I ever fired. He purchased it at the local army surplus/gun store in 1956.

I'm curious. Why use AR cases?

I have a pile of .45 ACP cases of dubious ancestry, with lengths that vary a lot. No problem in a 1911, but the AR cases cycle a lot more smoothly for me in the Rugers, and I don't like using moon clips in the 625.

A few more: 7.5" .45, 6.5" .357 and 6.5" .22.

Some fine Rugers gentlemen! :cool: I do like Ruger single actions but only ever owned one. I prefer the plow handled grips because they just look right unlike the bisleys. ;)
