For sale is a Ruger Redhawk revolver in .44 Mag. Serial number- 500-23137. This revolver is in good condition and features a 7.5" barrel, 6-shot cylinder, and a stainless finish. The Ruger Redhawk is a large frame double action revolver, based on Ruger's Security Six line. Available in both blued and stainless steel finish, the Redhawk is distinguishable from other revolvers due to its intentionally manufactured reinforcements in the frame, chamber and cylinder, making it capable of custom hot loads. This design feature was done to cater to the custom loaders, searching for more powerful handgun cartridges. At the time of its introduction, 1979, it was the most powerful handgun in the world, being that it could take the .44 Magnum cartridge, custom loaded to maximize velocity. Such 'hot' loads were usually reserved for rifles and not recommended for any of the other .44 Magnum handguns at the time, including the venerable Smith & Wesson Model 29/629. Since then other larger calibers and handguns have been introduced.
