[2066241]

My friends grandpa has this same gun..I shot it for the first time today...SWEET GUN!!!!!!!!!!

[ozark1951]

Nice clip!  Just what I was looking for. Well done.

[bigholmes95]

Not to tell you your business but winging the cylinder over like that is super hard on those guns. It eventually will cause timing problems if you keep doing it. An old timer caught me doing it an chewed my ass.....

[superstockballer21]

Had a black hawk my self, reloading and unloading the empty casings was a pain but still a great gun.

[jasonfined]

i like how you're shoot towards a house. that's good form.

[PAINTANK]

@jasonfined

That is a collapsed late 1800s barn. Just the roofline resting on the ground. It is all fallen logs and serves as the backstop. Beyond it is 6 acres of swamp. I can see what you mean about it looking like a house though.

[primeguy31]

nice gun! what's the barrel-length on yours? i'm getting one with the 6.5 inch barrel, thought that might be good for hunting. any suggestions for a good brand/ bullet weight for deer with this gun? looks like you're having fun...keep it up!

[Helikaon9]

how's the pricing of .357 rounds in general and the ease in which you can find'em? i want a nice side-arm to go with my new rifle and this Ruger Blackhawk's the one i'm considering. any help is appreciated!

[devouringfate]

@Helikaon9 357 is moderately priced and its easy to find them. Probably the most common single action round now a days .

[aleiva101]

I love fanninf those babies

[noversibirsk]

Sweet!!!

[castercamber]

I enjoyed the vid. Gotta love them single action Rugers.

[jakedaredneck]

If You get the right stuff, do scopes mount well on these things? (anyone open to answer)

[Velazquez283]

I guess the wifes cooking really does suck huh?

[HellsMaverick]

HAHA!

"I made dinner, honey!"

"...YOU CALL THIS DINNER?!"

BLAM! click BLAM! click BLAM!

[iHaveHate4All]

I went shooting today, and i had a gun just like this one, now i'm 13, and i could shoot it with one hand controllably. I thought the recoil would be a lot more violent, guess not.

[PAINTANK]

It's not that bad to shoot. It's only a 357.

[iHaveHate4All]

yeah, but my sister shot it first and it almost hit her forehead, that, and we were using reloads...

[antant360]

ruger gp 100

[JohnnySton3r]

@PAINTANK is a dan wesson ppc have a really strong recoil?

[Masterhunter2009]

A 357 magnum only has a bad recoil if it has a small barrel length.

[RN1204]

That thing is a cap gun compared to my OLD model SUPER Blackhawk 44 magnum. Still a nice SA revolver.

[d0nEff1]

damn man, america is crazy. hard to shoot your old stove, without getting arrested by the cops here in germany :P

[thaifan88]

America is fucking awsome. It defines 'free country'

[XxTwist3DpbxX]

i have this gun.....but its silver

[mattmonster14]

i got the exact same gun, it also shots 357 mag, got it for free cause my friend passed way and none of his family wanted it, so i just got it

[laiede03]

I have the same gun but it shoots .45 acp. It's a great peacemaker and side arm for deer hunting. Sometimes the firing pin jams when it's loaded though, very scary and dangerous!

[MrSmurfySmurf]

1:02- it that the same barney u blasted in the other vid???????????

(its to the right of the stove and u can barely see it)

[boss351freak]

my father inlaw just gave me this gun he had it back when he used to do gun shows so the sights are all shaved off its a good gun! nice shooting

[Roberthurz]

I never met a Ruger Blackhawk I didn't like. I have the 41 Magnum in a 6 and 1/2 inch barrel and I love it. I have shot the 44, 357 and 45 Long Colt and it was a pleasure to shoot all of them.

[mutez0r]

nice shooting, brother! i love my Ruger as well, they're fine firearms!

[dracula97]

Man I want to see a Model 25 Smith and Wesson! And I can't find one. But Rugers will do fine until then.

[ross8425]

I got a 357/9mm conv on layaway. Cant wait to get it. How is the recoil on that compared to the gp100?

[PAINTANK]

Not bad at all. It's a bigger pistol so the weight absorbs a lot. Single action is fun. The GP100 is a great handgun. That one has the Neoprene(I think thats what Ruger calls it) grips that are designed to take the brunt of the punishment.

The hardest kicking 357 I ever owned was a snubby from Taurus in Titanium. Bastard was brutal. This pistol is tame in comparison.

[ross8425]

cool. my only worries is the exposed back strap. a redhawk has the backstrap exposed, and that fucker hurts my hands when i shoot it. it sucks that ruger doesnt fit the srh grip on the regular redhawk... thanks for the info.

i bet it doesnt kick at all with 9mms :)

[svsintentions]

I got a nice set of hogue rubber grips on my BH .44 mag and it turned robust recoil into easy to manage recoil and covers the backstrap.

[italianbadboy12]

thats a nice gun man

[PAINTANK]

Love that pistol!

[beserkfox]

i just got one for Christmas it was my grandfathers its an old one and has a real animal horn grip and believe it or not its my 14th gun.

[Asertix357]

I've got that same model.

What load were you using?

[PAINTANK]

Target loads. Nothing special.

I typically shoot .38s through it for practice.

It's the 200th Year of American Liberty model.

What I really want are better grips, these are the factory ones and they are a bit small for my taste.

[PAINTANK]

I just noticed something. I was aiming for the door of the stove the last 12 shots, not the metal plate on top!

[PAINTANK]

9 is loud but I think 357 is louder.

45 is easy.

[gandb21]

i dont believe the 9 is nearly as loud or as powerful as a 45.lol

[PAINTANK]

9 is loud. The 45 has stopping power because it is big and slow. The 9 is faster.

I prefer the 45 personally.

[gandb21]

yea, i kno, pretty much all pistols can make your ears ring, even a little .22lr

[pablopinto06]

HI, JAJA, NICE SHOTS, BUT I HAVE A QUESTION MY FRIEND...IS THE 357 MAGNUM (4 INCHES BARREL) LOUDER THAN A 9MM O 45 ACP? HOW MUCH LOUDER IS THE 357 MAGNUM FIRED FROM 4 INCHES BARREL?. AND DON'T FORGET "happiness is a warm gun"

goodbye
