Yesterday I swung buy the pawn shop to see what they had. Not much in the way of guns the shelves were kind of empty. In the case was a rather nice looking Stainless Steel .44 Magnum Ruger Redhawk 7.5" barrel. It's used but in great condition. Well as I was leaving I'll be danged if it didn't just jump out of the case and follow me home <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />. Just got back from the property and it shoots really nice <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

That sounds really cool. Too many restrictions up here in Canada regarding handguns. Way too much control. Hope you enjoy your new toy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Here is a pic. ![[Linked Image from i5.photobucket.com]](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y181/mgw906/IMG_0190.jpg) I picked this up to replace a single action .44 that is pretty much wore out. Been shooting .44 mags for a long time and really like them. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Been shooting .44 mags for a long time and really like them. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Oh that is righteous, Bors. I had a blued one in the 80s. No matter how far I adjusted the sight windage, it would not center. The Redhawk is a beefy frame and can handle the hottest loads. I liked mine, but just couldn't hit with it so I got a S&W 29 that shot well. I don't think that is typical of Ruger Redhawks because my buddy's Super Redhawk was a tack driver. That looks like a nice one. I hope it shoots as good as it looks. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.
