I just purchased 2 ruger 3 screw blackhawks in 98% with stag grips. They are not converted. They have 4 and 5/8 in barrels and were made in 1958 (flattop). Oh and they are in .357. I was wondering if I got a fair deal at $900 for the pair. These are my first single actions and also my first purchases on my curio and relic ffl. I understand they have high desirability for speed shooters as they convert them to 45 lc and put aluminum barrels on them all though I have no dillusions of doing that.
Is is safe to shoot +p+ rounds in them?
can I tell from the serial number if they are of the redesigned frame or the old style frame?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
I have always wanted a colt but can't afford one right now(or in reality I find something else I want to purchase before I can save the money for one).
