The Ruger Redhawk is a large frame conventional revolver that is offered in both single and double action.  It is available in both blued and Stainless Steel finish. What distinguishes it from other revolvers is the fact that it was intentionally built with substantial reinforcements in the frame, chamber and cylinder, making it capable of taking very '''hot''' custom hand loads.  This design feature was done to cater to the custom loaders, ever searching for more powerful handgun cartridges.  At the time of it's 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 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. 


The '''Ruger Redhawk''' is a large frame double action revolver, based on Ruger's [[Ruger Security Six|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 taking very '''hot''' custom hand loads. This design feature was done to cater to the custom loaders, ever 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]]/[[Smith & Wesson Model 629|629]]. Since then other larger calibers and handguns have been introduced.


'''Specifications:'''
In the mid-1980s, some Redhawks had barrels fall off during shooting. Ruger developed an improved version of the Redhawk, dubbed the '''Super Redhawk''', based on the [[Ruger GP100 |GP-100]] revolver. The Super Redhawk uses a modular grip frame and the frame extends out an additional 2 1/2" to allow for the mounting of a scope and newer, more powerful cartridges. After an investigation, Ruger realized that the issue with the barrels on the classic Redhawk existed only in a single batch that was using incorrect lubricant on the barrel threads. Rather than discontinuing the Redhawk, Ruger decided to continue building both designs and still produces the venerable Redhawk to this day. Since its introduction, Ruger has introduced newer calibers as well, like .45 ACP, .45 Long Colt and .357 Magnum to the classic Redhawk line, as well as re-introducing the older .41 Magnum Redhawk as a Davidson's Distributor exclusive. The Super Redhawk line now includes other powerful chamberings such as .454 Casull, .480 Ruger and 10mm Auto.

Ruger Redhawk Hunter with scope ring cuts and a 7.5" barrel, the longest factory option for the classic Redhawk - .44 Magnum

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 taking very hot custom hand loads. This design feature was done to cater to the custom loaders, ever 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.

In the mid-1980s, some Redhawks had barrels fall off during shooting. Ruger developed an improved version of the Redhawk, dubbed the Super Redhawk, based on the GP-100 revolver. The Super Redhawk uses a modular grip frame and the frame extends out an additional 2 1/2" to allow for the mounting of a scope and newer, more powerful cartridges. After an investigation, Ruger realized that the issue with the barrels on the classic Redhawk existed only in a single batch that was using incorrect lubricant on the barrel threads. Rather than discontinuing the Redhawk, Ruger decided to continue building both designs and still produces the venerable Redhawk to this day. Since its introduction, Ruger has introduced newer calibers as well, like .45 ACP, .45 Long Colt and .357 Magnum to the classic Redhawk line, as well as re-introducing the older .41 Magnum Redhawk as a Davidson's Distributor exclusive. The Super Redhawk line now includes other powerful chamberings such as .454 Casull, .480 Ruger and 10mm Auto.
