Default Flea Market Find, 41 Blackhawk

I've been on the lookout for one of these, Ruger NM Blackhawk in .41 Magnum. It appears to have been shot very little and well taken care of. I might add some after market grips to it. ?

Shipped in 1992.

Nice NM example!

I sold the only .41 Remington Magnum I've ever owned, (to fund another gun purchase) and I've since been looking to replace it. It wasn't as nice as yours, condition-wise but it was a 3-screw having a 4 5/8" bbl. and it was mechanically sound. In all honesty, it was the roughest condition finish of any Blackhawk or Ruger that I've ever possesed.

Now, seeing how few of these are out there these days, I think I should have put something else up for sale.

Nice. I vote for elk grips from our local artisan.

I like the barrel length on your 3 screw. Elk would make it pop. We saw two elk about 60 miles from where I bought the gun just ten days ago.

Congratulations. Great gun in an even greater cartridge. Got my first BH 41 in 1982. Still have that one and a few more have been added. Hope you enjoy your new sixgun.
