You have the opportunity to bid on a great example of a Ruger Super Blackhawk New Model .44 Magnum Revolver with Leather Holster. This revolver features a deep blue'd finish, 7 1/2" barrel, custom grips, and adjustable sights. When the .44 Remington Magnum cartridge was introduced in 1956, the existing Blackhawk single action revolver was immediately adapted to the new cartridge. However, the Blackhawk was not the optimum vehicle for the powerful .44 Magnum cartridge. Realizing that, Bill Ruger set out to improve the Blackhawk, and the result was the Super Blackhawk. Bill Ruger redesigned his single action revolvers in 1973 and created the "New Model" Super Blackhawk. These revolvers incorporate a transfer bar ignition system and use the opening of the loading gate to retract the cylinder bolt, allowing the cylinder to turn for loading. The New Model Ruger SA revolvers are probably the safest repeating handguns ever, and they can be carried with all six chambers loaded. The New Model Super Blackhawk is very similar to the Blackhawk Model, and the mechanism is identical. But the Super was introduced with a longer Dragoon style steel grip frame with a distinctive square back trigger guard, a wider and slightly lower hammer spur, wide trigger, steel ejector rod housing, unfluted cylinder, and a 7 1/2 inch barrel. This revolver is in good condition, showing little wear other then handling marks. This revolver was manufactured in 1978. Modern firearm. FFL transfer or NICS background check required. The serial number is 82-57744.
