    Giving a NM Black hawk some love = awesome trigger

    I had thought about going up on the trigger spring , It has a 30oz in it now and I have a 40oz to put in . I actually Installed a 24 pound extra power hammer spring thinking the occasional light strike may have been that so it’s not stock weight . I’m not 100% sure the pull weight is correct...

    Giving a NM Black hawk some love = awesome trigger

    So I bought this 357 mag used some years ago and I hunted with it and killed a few deer for a bit. I moved up to my SRH 44 so I passed this down to my son . About 5-6 years ago I did a complete dis-assemble of the revolver and it was pretty nasty . At this time I polished the trigger hammer...

    Super red hawk Weigand mount & Hogue non- finger groove grip

    Yep they are, I used this when I ran my 30mm ultra dot red dot. It gave me more adjustment for the placement of the sight tube .

    Something to consider that I didn’t see mentioned is width, a smaller s/s will get you on a lot more trails and snake through the woods easier.

    180gr 357

    I was using a 180 grain rim rock hard cast gas check for hunting, it’s the same bullet that buffalo bore uses in their heavy hunting loads . So with 13 grains of 2400 with a heavy crimp I was getting mid 1300’s over the chronograph. I was close enough to their 1400’ FPS to be happy with it...

    hogue grip finger groves

    Hogue sells a rubber non finger groove grip, I bought one for my SRH because my big fat fingers did not fit in the finger grooved one. Didn’t like that one either and bought a non finger groove wood grip from hogue. It had a way larger palm swell that fits my hand great.

    Disassembling GP-100 problem

    I bought a used Blackhawk, and decided to disassemble for a deep clean and was shocked how much crud was in there. After cleaning it actually smoothed out the gun.
