I was thinking the same thing but unless you're a die-hard Smith fan you're not sure what that even is LOL. This will make someone an awesome 3 cartridge gun. They don't make them any better

That's what I was thinking...

Good price on a "Ruger Pinto "

It should fire 380 and 9x18 as well

They are available from Ruger with 2 cylinders Ruger will not sell a cylinder for a Blackhawk unless it originally came with the gun( and was lost or damaged I purchased this cylinder for the gun on the internet. Cylinders are all the same size except for length. One needs to find the same length as their original 357 cylinder and they fit and work as well as a factory one. I have or have had 5 Blackhawks that got ACP cylinders .

Actually, you can send a gun back to Ruger and they will fit a conversion cylinder to it for a tremendous price. Way back when it didn't cost and arm and a leg, I did that with a .45 Colt. Sold the gun off, and was probably the biggest gun mistake I've made.

If the cylinder is factory fitted, the conversion cylinder will have the last 3 numbers of the gun etched into it.

I learned all this after I did the same thing as OP -bought a 9mm cylinder for a .357. The 9mm was not long enough and would only fire if the gun was pointed straight up.

I've got two New Model Blackhawk 357/38/9mm convertibles. I've never heard the reference to "Pinto." Could someone enlighten me on it's meaning. TIA

The two toned look... it's a S&W thing

I have always wanted one of these...
