Very nice. Don't forget, with an old Three Screw, half cock to load, load one, skip one, load four more, full cock then lower the hammer on an empty chamber. Just like a Colt.
Has your new 3 screw had the "upgrade" done or is it unmolested? Either way I'm still a bit jealous.
Darn nice find at a decent price. I like the grips and the barrel length. In that condition, I would have snapped it up. You can never have too many Blackhawks.

Stopped by my LGS this afternoon and found his beautiful old 3 screw Blackhawk in .357. $658 out the door for one of these in good condition is not a bad price. This one is in 98% condition. Those are A-Jax stag grips in like new condition. Couldn’t resist!

Nice 3 screw Blackhawk and in great shape too! The Ajax grips look pretty good as well. Picked up my Blackhawk at a gun show some years back. Cleaned up fairly nice and I love the way it sounds every time I pull back on the hammer!

It's always nice to have friends in the gun business! Use to have a buddy of mine that I went through school with working behind the counter at a LGS. He would set things aside for me so that when I came in he would go in the back and bring them out so I had first pick before it hit the display case.
Got a great deal on several like new guns, especially this S&W Model 34 which I got for my wife.
