A friend of mine keeps this in his shop. I don’t know where he got it, but the story is a man brought it in after a kaboom from gun show reloads. I am guessing he wanted to know what his options were as far as the shop fixing it? Replacing it? Warranty work?
Yeah. Really.
So now it sits. Unfixed. As a talisman warning newcomers of the dangers of strange women…cough…cough…I mean strange reloads.
Special note. If you don’t appreciate how strong a Ruger 45 Blackhawk frame is? Trust me. Ole boy had to work pretty hard to kaboom a Blackhawk.
