I'll post a few...I have a problem with pics so end up doing thumbnails that have to be clicked on...

An old model Super Blackhawk from 1972 with under 100 rounds fired and absolutly un molested...A Lipsey 44 special Blackhawk flattop..(my avitar gun)....a 44 mag Super Blackhawk with the Hogue....shorter bbl for the big flash and finally an "original" Vaquero in the 3 3/4" Sheriff model...it'a a 357 magnum. I'll post more as I get time...Big bores forever...got several 44 mags, several 45 Colts, several 44 specials, several 357's, several convertables...all Rugers....I'm powerless!!...Of course I load for all the big bores...can't afford the buck a shot or whatever it is now.

Sabre66,
I really like the looks of those new Talo .44mag unfluted cylinder SBH SS 3.75" but those grips look like they were made for another gun. It seems like I've read some posts elsewhere about these guns/these grips but I didn't realize they were this bad until I saw those pics. Have you tried to get some other grips via warrenty from Ruger?

D.

An updated photo; The family now all wear Herrett Shooting Star Target Grips. They may not be very pretty but, for me, they improve grip, comfort, control and accuracy. Function over form. YMMV

Top to bottom: Single Ten 5½"; Single Six Convertible 4⅝"; Blackhawk Flattop 4⅝", .45LC / .45acp Convertible; Blackhawk 5½", .45LC / .45acp Convertible

Beautiful weapons! I'm in love with the bird's head frame. Are those limited editions? Or are they standard production weapons?

They are special editions, but still readily available. They are my favorite although I really like my flattop .44 Special and Single ten also. Here's my everday one (my favorite of them all)


and my "Sunday, go to meetin" one


and I have a .22 (like this) enroute

Thanks for info. You have some fine weapons as well. I wonder is a standard SAA frame can be modified? The birds head looks like a short barrel. I'd love to see a 5-1/2" with a birds head grip.

While I've owned lots of Ruger SAs in the past, these are the finest I've ever had the pleasure of owning and shooting. They're two Lipsey Ruger Flattops, a 44 Special Blackhawk Bisley and a 45 Caliber Blackhawk that Hamilton Bowen just converted to a Bisley for me. Both are fitted with Paul Persinger White Micarta grips. I had Hamilton deck the frames before sending them to Paul, and it allowed him to achieve a truly seamless fit. My goal was to make them both look like exceptional versions of a factory gun. The Lipsey 44 was close to that already, but I think Hamilton did a superb job of making the 45 match the look of its twin.






Even on very close inspection the two are indistinguishable except for caliber. Bowen's fit and finish of the Bisley grip frame (a Ruger part) is every bit as close as Ruger's own on the 44. What I find amazing is how good Ruger has gotten in that department, approaching Freedom Arms in its level of quality.

Here is the 357 Maximum I picked up recently. New and unfired in its original box with the manual and warranty, and the original wrapping papers. The box is in superb condition as well. The gun is one of only a few 100% guns I've ever owned. I'll probably end up selling it to some collector who is looking for something really special. I have no intention of ever firing it.






Enjoy!
