Ruger red hawk .41 mag

Nice choice, except I'd opt for either 44 Mag or 45 Long Colt. A heavy loaded 45 Colt is an awesome gun. Although the first revolver I bought on my own was a 7" Ruger Redhawk in 44 Mag, if limited to only one revolver, the RH would have a 5 1/2" barrel.

That is a sweet arse picture.

And I agree. Everybody should own a smith wheelgun.

They should use a ruger though.

I love my old man's Ruger Security Six .357. Handles and shoots like a dream, plus it has a cool bicentennial engraving.

I think you would do well to get a nice wood grip and change that pachmayer looking grip out.

On those snubby .38 specials nothing looks better than some nice wood grips


Just looked at some, there're some cool ones. It's a model 36 and best I can tell it's from 1982. Definitely going to put some nice wooden grips, or monogrip on it.

mine is cute, but too damn loud.

And I hate that stupid "drag line". Seems like it shows up more on the black too

mine is identical to this.

I would bet that it prob has had 50,000 rnds of wad cutters through it and 10,000 reg rounds.
By far my fav shooter

Single action ArmyColt 45. Not loud enough for ear muffs and have CCI snake shot in the first two holes. Have it hanging by the front door at all times.
