Sent my 10 bucks to Ruger.
Got a letter stating my dad's old Superblackhawk left as an S47 to Gil Hebard in '72.
It has a Ruger brass frame.
But didn't letter as a S47B. B for brass I reckon.
So most likely added later. I can't remember back to '72 LOL
BRC sent me a replacement ejector rod housing (first one didn't fit right).
Replacement works fine Steel and tight, original was aluminum - worn and rattled.
Got a Belt Mountain standard base pin for recoil insurance.
Orig grips shrunk, got new black lam from Ruger. Had to fit. Not their best work, whoever makes em.
So............its all together, orig parts put back in (hate the safety conversion hammer- thin spur).
Like the orig wide spur way better.
Do not like the serrated wide trigger. Would prefer a smooth faced trigger.
Dunno anybody that makes one.
Can't shoot it......since wrist is jacked up. But it is usable now, and looks better w black grips.
Lots of holster wear. Leaving that.
Wondering about holsters. Black hills western hunter maybe.
Worst case just get a Bianchi lawman.
