The Colts and their clones are like this too. However, this is not a very strong safety and it could still go off with a hard enough impact. Now there is a “safety” notch on the hammer that keeps it above the firing pin. If something was to hit the hammer hard enough, or the gun was dropped, it could discharge. The reason for this is that the hammer, when lowered, is resting on the firing pin. The 3 Screw should be carried with 5 rounds in the cylinder. The New Modelīefore we get into the meat of the review gun I need to take a few words to talk about the changes that were made to the 3 Screw and the development of the New Model Blackhawk. Ruger offered these Blackhawks in a number of calibers and barrel lengths. There are also the Super Blackhawks that are in. Ruger stepped in with what is really an updated Colt. Colt had stopped production of the most well know revolver, the Single Action Army with only a few being made after WWII. Westerns were very popular in the 1950s and there was a market for a new revolver like the ones the cowboys, lawmen and outlaws were seen with on TV and in the movies. 22 LR, which shares the same action, preceded it by two years. Sturm, Ruger and Company started production on the single action Blackhawk revolver in 1955. This wouldn’t be a Shooting History article if we didn’t talk about history. Bear with me while I attempt to back that statement up! History In my opinion, they are just about the best production single action revolvers ever made. If you are fan of the single action revolver and have never shot one of these you owe it to yourself to do so. The name 3 Screw is in reference to the 3 Screws on the side of the frame. But Ruger stopped making them in 1973 and they have become more and more collectable and valuable. The Ruger 3 Screw… see the 3 screws? The Ruger 3 Screw Blackhawk
