What’s Included
- Ruger New Model Blackhawk .45 caliber revolver
This New Model Blackhawk is built on a steel frame with a blued finish, matched by a blued steel cylinder and barrel for a cohesive, durable appearance. The hammer and trigger are left in the white, providing a clean contrast to the bluing.
The revolver uses an adjustable square-notch rear sight set into the topstrap with protective sight ears, paired to a ramped front blade with a serrated rear face. This setup offers precise sight regulation while maintaining a traditional profile.
It is configured with a fluted six-shot cylinder and a full-length under-barrel ejector rod housing capped with a crescent head. The non-flattop topstrap maintains the Blackhawk’s recognizable silhouette.
Controls and handling are straightforward: single-action-only operation with Ruger’s transfer-bar safety. Black checkered synthetic grip panels with Ruger medallions provide a secure hold. Made in the USA, this 2009 example presents as a strong, well-sorted .45-caliber single-action.
