This BN-36X Convertible ships with both a .357 Magnum cylinder and a fluted 9 mm cylinder, giving you two popular calibers in one revolver. A simple cylinder swap allows you to move between inexpensive 9 mm practice ammo and full-power .357 Magnum loads without changing point of aim.
The 6.5-inch alloy-steel barrel provides a long sight radius and balances the 45-ounce frame for steady off-hand shooting. Ruger’s adjustable rear sight and serrated ramp front blade offer precise, repeatable sight settings for either caliber.
An XR-3 style grip frame with checkered hardwood panels and silver Ruger medallions delivers a traditional feel, while the included synthetic grips let you tailor the revolver’s handling to personal preference or weather conditions.
Inside, the New Model transfer-bar safety system permits safe carry with all six chambers loaded, a feature collectors and shooters appreciate for both utility and peace of mind.
Built in Ruger’s Prescott, Arizona facility, this 2017 Blackhawk combines modern steel, a durable blued finish, and time-tested single-action mechanics—ready for range sessions, field use, or a spot in a convertible revolver collection.
