Beautiful guns you've got there, Ree!! Those are keepers for sure (for more than one reason, obviously). :thumbup:

o crap! i didnt explain the case which to me has the most emotional value, when we were gettin ready to leave my grandmother told my uncle to go get my grandfather's old case out of the closet for me to have to take the .22 home in. he came back with this one and a zip shotgun case that was way too big for my .22. she had forgotten about the one i got but told my uncle to see if it would fit. he put it in it and it fits perfectly. after that she told me that it was my grandfather's that he had made in one of his classes in college. he died right b4 my 16th birthday so to say the least it is extremely special to me!

Sweeet. The scabbard should have been enough for me to appreciate, but 2 guns to boot, somebody help me to the door please. I can't walk. Congrats.

Congrats on the new additions. But forgive my ignorance but I thought that the ruger single actions were blackhawks and the double actions were redhawks.

The super blackhawks are some fine guns I have several of them and really like them. I have the 4 5/8" barrels to me that's what all single actions should be. I have a couple that were 7.5" guns that I had cut down to 4 5/8". That's just what I like. I even have 2 30 carbines that were cut to my length. Ruger never saw fit to make them like I wanted so I had them made my way now the ejector rod housing and the barrel stop together.
