Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Engineered as an evolution of William B. Ruger's revolutionary single-action platform, the Ruger New Model Blackhawk was introduced in 1973, setting a new benchmark for modern single-action revolvers. Built upon an overbuilt solid steel investment-cast frame, the New Model introduced Ruger's patented transfer bar safety system, enabling shooters to safely carry a full six rounds in the cylinder without fear of accidental discharge upon an external blow to the hammer. The convertible variant remains one of the most versatile and celebrated configurations in the Blackhawk lineage, offering dual cylinders to seamlessly transition between the traditional power of .45 Colt and the readily available target efficiency of .45 ACP. Paired with a long 7.5-inch target barrel, fully adjustable micro-click rear target sights, and classic walnut grip panels, the New Model Blackhawk Convertible stands as an enduring American icon of rugged mechanical strength, field utility, and pinpoint big-bore accuracy.
This magnificent example is an authentic Ruger New Model Blackhawk Convertible chambered in dual .45 Colt and .45 ACP calibers, bearing serial number 47-37470. It features a desirable 7.5-inch carbon steel barrel, an installed fluted 6-shot .45 Colt cylinder, an auxiliary 6-shot .45 ACP cylinder, a ramped target front sight blade, a micro-adjustable target rear sight, and smooth American walnut grips detailed with silver Ruger phoenix medallions. The factory deep blued finish presents in pristine condition throughout, exhibiting brilliant deep mirror-like lustre and razor-sharp roll-marks across the frame and barrel. Mechanically, cylinder lockup is rock-solid on both cylinders, the single-action hammer drops with a crisp, icicle-clean break, and the 7.5-inch barrel bore is mirror-bright with razor-sharp rifling. Complete in its original factory two-piece yellow-and-black box with owner's instruction manual packet, this complete dual-cylinder Blackhawk is an investment-grade centerpiece for any Western firearms or Ruger collector.
