A: Hi Stephen this handgun only qualifies for a 90 day layaway but yes you would get your military discount still.

A: Military discount counts Stephen. You can create your own 180 layaway by simply saving for 90 days and then putting this pistol on the standard 90 layaway. You will have your pistol in the same 180 days.

A: The Blackhawk does not use moon clips I have this gun. It uses a cylinder bored for .45acp (comes with 2 cylinders 45 lc and 45acp)

A: No moon clips required as this head spaces off the case mouth and not the rim in the 45 Cylinder.

A: There is no way to use moon clips on a single action (cowboy) gun because it loads and unloads 1 cartridge at a time (into the cylinder) through a loading gate

A: Hi Richard, No Moon clips are required. This unloads 1 round at a time. Please click the green box stating it as the best answer. We are rated on our answers and are just volunteers, not Buds employees. You can choose more then one Thank you!

A: No moon clips. It head spaces on the case mouth and the cylinder is bored with a shoulder for it to rest on. You can use 45 ACP or 45 Auto Rim.

A: Hi Bridget, the Ruger Blackhawk is a "Large Frame" revolver and is definitely rated for +P Heavy ammunition by Ruger.

A: The Blackhawk is the large frame and it will handle +p ammo with no issues in-fact many reloading manuals have a "Ruger only" 45LC section of loads that are to "hot" for other 45lc revolvers. I think Buffalo bore has some Ruger only loads also. It is one of the strongest 45lc single action guns on the market. Mine has the 5.5 inch barrel and I carry it in the woods for close encounters with bears and others

A: If youre nit sure contact Ruger customer service. If the owner's manuel doesnt specify it then I wouldn't recommend it.
