Ruger New Model Blackhawk .357 Magnum, Blued + Pearl Grips
1 in stock
Description
This Pre-Owned Ruger New Model Blackhawk is a six-shot single-action revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, built on the blued alloy steel pattern Ruger has produced since the 1970s. The serial number and frame details place this example in 1980 production, early within the New Model line that introduced the transfer bar ignition system. Shooters who want a traditional single-action profile with modern internal safety engineering, whether for range work, handloading experimentation, or field carry, will find this a familiar and sturdy platform.
The revolver wears a high-polish blued finish over a 6.5-inch cold hammer-forged barrel, with the long sight radius that barrel length provides. Factory black checkered hard rubber panels have been swapped for smooth synthetic faux-pearl grips, a period-appropriate dress-up that gives the gun a filled, rounded feel in the hand. Condition reflects its age with the finish and mechanics presenting well.
