The price reflects the deactivation status of this weapon. In the early 1950s, Westerns were popular in movies and television.

In 1953, the new firm of Sturm, Ruger & Company introduced the Single-Six single-action revolver. The Single-Six proved to be a popular seller, leading Ruger to develop and market a centerfire revolver similar to the Colt Single Action Army: the Ruger Blackhawk. In 1973 Ruger introduced the New Model Blackhawk. This large frame Ruger Blackhawk New Model .357 Magnum Revolver is in excellent condition and was made in 1976 as indicated by the barrel marking ‘Made In The 200th year Of American Liberty’.
