RUGER NEW MODEL BLACKHAWK (FLAT TOP TARGET) .44 SPECIAL, 5 1/5" BLUE
Very seldom fired Ruger Flat Top .44 Special. Limited production, made in 2009 with warning label on bottom of barrel. (I cannot tell you how much this enhances the overall appearance of the revolver!). Nicely configured, Micro target sights like original Ruger Blackhawk.
Second owner, I never fired, I am a custom Gunmaker and made a set of exhibition grade French Walnut Grips for the gun. The grain follows the curve of the grips, has excellent flame grin and black smoke streaking. The wood was finished with a reddish tone as were early single action grips.
Bluing is excellent with turn line and a few small scratches. Revolver works perfectly as it should, has safety transfer bar, cylinder unlock with gate opening and decent trigger pull. 5 1/2" barrel is my favorite for these guns for looks and balance. Grips are professionally fit and finished and make the Ruger into an all-star.
Gun comes with original grips, box, all paper, cylinder ring, padlock, test-fire case and everything that came with it when new.
