Does anyone know if Lipsey's has the New Model Blackhawk, 5.5 inch barrel, .45 LC/ .45 ACP in stainless steel? The website show they have them but...
I ordered one from local gunstore, and was told about 2 weeks they were out of stock, but should be in soon. They called me today and said it was in, I go by to pick it up, and it is the blued New Model Blackhawk, 5.5 inch barrel. They said they cannot call Lipsey's until Tuesday to figure out if they have the stainless steel in stock.
I prefer the stainless, but would not be unhappy with the blued version.
Another question - what is the difference between the Lipsey's version and the standard New Model Blackhawk? I know there are some pressure issues, but in terms of appearance, i.e. is the New Model Blackhawk larger?
I guess I am trying to make up my mind, if they don't have the stainless in 5.5 inch, should I tell them to return the Lipsey's, and get a standard New Model Blackhawk?
Thanks!
