    OLD model Super Blackhawk REAR sight

    Can anyone tell me if there is a Bowen Rough country rear sight for an OLD model Super Blackhawk. I see plenty of Rough country sights, but I am turning up nothing in finding one for an OLD model. I acquired this beast about a year ago, and the rear sight detents were stripped out on the...

    Accuracy Problems ???

    Thanks you all for all the posts. I purchased some hogue rubber grips yesterday and put them on the gun. Yes they look dreadful and feel like an ethiopan trying to wrap his arms around a cornbread-fed southern country girl, but they improved my shooting tremendously. Every time I pulled...

    Accuracy Problems ???

    I am having a very difficult time producing consistent groupings with this OM Super BH. About three weeks ago I shot a three shot group of about 4 inches a 40 yards off handed and I am beginning to think it was luck. I have fired numerous rounds since then and I am lucky to hit a pie plate at...

    I am enjoying this nice revolver

    First Ruger I have owned, and first SA if have owned. I am loving it more each time I pick it up. Nostalgia at its best along with good function and POWER from this OM SBH. I have to be honest. First couple of cylinders full, I couldnt group no tighter that 18 inches at 15 yards. Now after...

    Obligations on special orders ?

    All is fair in love and war (and business)! Just joking with you Hammer. Considering it has been nine months and the fact pointed out by the previous poster that there are probably many on the waiting list, I would not hesitate myself. Loyalty to a dealer is very admirable, but I think it is...

    Ruger M77-RSM

    I am thinking about pulling the trigger on a NIB Ruger M77-RSM in 375 H&H Mag. I have not seen one in person. I have looked at some MK II standard bolt rifles and they are nice. I have, on more than one occasion, read that there were accuracy issues with these rifles(standard m77), horrible...

    Clements #5 44 Special on a NM 357

    Axehandle, Nice gun in NICE chambering. The 44 spec. is a classic. I am fond of it. I have a SBH old model I hope to be sending to Clements before too terribly long. The work exhibited on your gun is encouraging for my sending mine to him. My request will be modest in comparison to yours...

    Technical question about sights

    Is the rear sight on this Super Blackhawk OM supposed to have "clicks" when turning the ELEVATION screw? The sight looks a little boogered up around the screw head base and doesn't click. As this is my first gun, I do not know how it supposed to be. When screwed out to raise point of impact...

    Not happy with this SBH transaction

    If you look at the original beginning post, it ended with a question, which was the entire point of me posting. I admit, too, that I was venting and jumped the gun a little. I did not mention the seller's name here and I did not give any information of his identity. I did not try to slander this...

    44 magum deer round

    Thanks everyone for the replies. Whitetail are tough animals. I take most with a scoped 30-06 vintage 721 remington, circa 1952 8) but I have shot a couple with my 375 H&H Mag. with 270 gr bullets traveling @ about 2800 fps. Shot a doe with said load broadside at 35 yards. Square pass-through...

    Not happy with this SBH transaction

    This is very true. Agreed. This particular seller told me personally that he has been shooting and handling Rugers since age nine, and he is in his late 40's now. He told me that he saw no signs of rebluing on the gun and that his other SBH (listed at same time as mine and sold about same time)...

    Not happy with this SBH transaction

    I emailed the seller asking for a refund, with me paying all further shipping costs. Hopefully he will refund me, and he is out nothing and I can buy something else.

    Not happy with this SBH transaction

    With all due respect sir, whether the revolver was a collectible or not is irrelevant. I bought this revolver under the pretense of it being a 98% ORIGINAL (it was not stated to the contrary of this) OLD model SBH. Getting what you pay for is highly subjective. Some don't mind a reblue, others...

    Not happy with this SBH transaction

    hittman, you have a good point. I am not trying to bash this guy at all. I am not a trouble maker and respect everyone. I just find it hard to believe that he, being an owner of MANY handguns (I know from speaking with him on the phone), didn't see these things and AT LEAST MENTION them in...
