From an old photo album.................

Recommended Posts

This photo was made around 1971 or so.  It was shot on Kodak Plus X  35 mm film, and the print scanned into my computer.  This was my entire handgun battery about that time.  Top to bottom:  Ruger Super Single Six .22 L.R (a convertible), Blackhawk .357 Magnum, Blackhawk .41 Magnum, and Super Blackhawk .44 Magnum:

The .22 was a favorite squirrel gun at the time, using .22 WRF in the .22 WMR cylinder.

 

 

A   5"   .44 Magnum Super Blackhawk and 4 5/8" .41 Magnum.  I got the .44 about 1979 so this photo dates about then.  The .41 now fitted with a Super Blackhawk grips frame:

Nice set. Do you still have them all?

No, Sir.  I have the .357 Blackhawk, the 5" Super Blackhawk, and the 7 1/2" Super Blackhawk.

 

Rest assured I am still well armed!

 

This is the .357 Magnum today:
