I must have this pistol.

[was_peacemaker]

I really have been wanting a semi-auto...but now that I have found out this exists I must obtain one of these fine pistols.

The Ruger Super Redhawk .454 with a 2.5 inch barrel. That is a lot of firepower in a concealed carry situation.

My wrist hurts just thinking about shooting it.

[El Laton Caliente]

Without the 7.5" plus barrel it doesn't have enough weight for the round... no thanks.

[Dr. Gonzo GED]

That's a big BOOM.

You thinking of hunting Terminators?


eta, the Super Redhawk is a damn fine gun. You wouldnt go wrong with one, though a slightly longer barrel wouldn't hurt. The standard 7" is quite a deal price wise and it's a popular platform for modification. (The 7" barrel makes it as tad "unweildy" albeit quite accuirate). The DA pull sucks balls, but SA is a joy. JMHO.

[O.S.O.K.]

That's not what I'd call anything like an ideal carry gun. Not even really that good for bear protection - I'd rather have at least 4" of barrel. And for me, the 44 Mag is plenty of poop.

But, go ahead and get it if you like it - to each his own!

Well, it you get tired of shooting .454 Casull ammo you can always use .45 Colt or .45 Schofield for something a little lighter.

YOu won't have to hit them with the bullet, the concussion from the overpressure blast at the muzzle should liquify their innards alone!

LOL That is funny. I have always loved the .454 since I got to shoot one years ago at a local range. Of course that pistol had a much longer barrel about 6-7 inches. Something about a .454 in a snubnose would be epic.

If she can do it...then you guys can do it! LOL

This is the kind of handgun that everyone at the range will stop to see what the hell is making that boom. I know, I've been that person that had to look at the guy shooting a seven inch 454 one day.

[NAPOTS]

If you going to do it, go all of the way and get this sumbitch.

Its a CCW piece for graboid attacks

If the velocity of the .50 isn't enough to puncture your rouge cyborg's carapace, you can always throw reason and sanity out the window with a .460;

I'm perfectly happy with my .44 Mag.

Nice looking pistol.

FWIW you can also run .454 and .45LC out of it. The redhawk is going to be a much better deal though.

I carry these concealed sometimes .........when i feel like lugging around a suitcase





Seriously though, that short barrel Ruger is absolutely brutal on the web of your hand without a glove. One of my shooting buddies has one and it cut my hand after the 5th round firing 325 grain ammo, .454 casull is a hard,fast recoiling round

What kind of groups do you get with that scoped pistol? Caliber, make, model of pistol, grain and brand of bullet, and distance?

[was_peacemaker]

I'm perfectly happy with my .44 Mag.

I shot one like that at a range a few years ago...loved it. What make of pistol is that?
