You could have 'got one' when Lipsey's medium frame .357/9mm flattop was introduced.
I could have, but I didn't want one. I wanted a new model Blackhawk, not the flattop version, and found one with the 6.5" barrel I prefer over the shorter ones.

I originally wanted the Blackhawk with the 9mm cylinder so in addition to .357/38s so I would have something other than a semi auto that shot 9mm. And then, as luck would have it, I ran across what I consider the ultimate plinker/survival gun in 9mm, a 6" Contender barrel in 9mm Luger. It's also the most accurate 9mm pistol I've ever owned.

SO, my desire for the 9mm Blackhawk faded, as I had it covered all the way around.
