    45 Colt, Blackhawk or SAA?

    Hello. Please help me choose... I used to own a Pietta .45 Colt SAA clone and still have the RCBS 45-270-SAA mold, reloading dies and a bunch of cases, so I'd like to get another 45. I also have an 1897 SAA in .38-40 so I'm very familiar with the Colt's ergonomics, which I love. Is the size of...

    Ruger Blackhawk Target Sights Suggestions

    I have recently acquired a Ruger Blackhawk Flat Top (2 scew) in 45 Colt. I would like to use it for hunting, primarily whitetail. Now from previous experience with a Ruger .357 Mag the sights while durable and rugged are just that, rugged. The front post darn near covers a target at 100...

    Ruger Blackhawk question

    I think I know the answer but I'll ask anyway. I was fondling a Ruger redhawk, the new one that shoots 45lc and 45acp, SS, hefty. I have a Ruger Blackhawk in 45lc and it seemed so much lighter. Anyway my question is: can a Blackhawk take the same punishment as a Redhawk? I am wondering if...

    Talo vs. Lipsey

    Hi everyone. I just purchased a ruger super blackhawk and found out it is an exclusive edition distributed by Talo rather than Lipsey. Is there a difference? What do these distributors do to the gun to make it an exclusive? Thanks in advance.

    What is the most accurate out-of-box 9mm available for $3-400?

    So, the local gun club has a steel target range that all members must qualify to use. The standard is 9 of 10 shots on a 6-inch circle from 15 yards, shot standing, without any kind of a rest.
