Any thoughts on the Ruger New Model Blackhawk Convertible and whether the 4.62" or the 5.5" would be the 'better' length for trail use as opposed to cowboy competitions?
I currently have an adapter which allows me to shoot 45 Long Colt from a shotgun and am looking to, perhaps, give myself some handgun capability, then, maybe, in the future, a lever gun. But, having the ability to also utilize 45 ACP strikes me as 'attractive.'
Ruger offers a Redhawk which would shoot both 45 LC and 45 ACP, but it's half again as expensive and I think a shooter used to have to utilize moon clips to fire the 45 ACP, whereas the Blackhawk you swap out the cylinder.
