The Lawman Who Warned America About the Ruger Blackhawk

A Rifle for My Son: https://www.armsarchives.com/ The Ruger Blackhawk arrived in 1955, when America was supposedly finished with the old single-action sixgun. This is the story of how the Blackhawk became one of America’s great hunting and working revolvers, the sixgun culture that surrounded it, and Skeeter Skelton, the Texas lawman and gun writer who spent decades arguing for what a practical revolver should be. From the .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum to the .41, .45 Colt, Old Models, New Models, custom conversions, hunting camps, fathers, sons, and Skeeter’s final unfinished Blackhawk.
