just bought a new (to me, well really old in a way) Ruger 3 screw 357 mag Blackhawk.

Me brother bought it early 70's along with 2 boxes of cartridges. He shot about a box and a half, sold it to me and I finished the other box. Kept it for a couple of years and sold it to a friend of mine for $125.

He called and said he'd sell it back to me "for a little profit" or else it's gone to someone else.

How much profit. $25. sum total $150. He hasn't even shot it once.

I just got back with a grin from ear to ear.

I know how you feel, you just can't hardly beat the old 3 screw black hawks. I have my fathers old 3 screw in a 357mag, but it is one of the first Black Hawks with the flat top. Those like yours and mine were made in the days when Bill Ruger was in charge, and knew how to make guns. NO PLASTIC!

Best Wishes from the Boer Ranch.

I did almost the same with A Colt Government model and a Ruger Security Six. The same guy bought them from me and eventually sold the Ruger back, and traded a Marlin .444 for the Colt. They are staying home now....
