Was the OM Blackhawk ever made in stainless?

I had a gentlemen offer me a Blackhawk a few years back he said it was a stainless model I wasn't very interested as I had one already but his collection was old and I just occured to me I might've been an old model which I love... Was the OM blackhawk .357 ever produced in stainless?

I can't seem to find a picture of one online...

Perhaps someone here can shed some light on the topic?

Nope, no Old Model single actions were ever produced in stainless steel.

I don't think so. My vote is "no". Stainless came along several years after the NM Blackhawk.

Nope---but they DID make a few chrome plated ones. Display guns
which were later sold.
