    I've got all kinds of Blackhawks, a Speed Six, P-97, SR1911, etc., but for some reason just now brought home my first ever Redhawk:

    Congrats,
    I REALLY like the big bore Redhawks,
    Been looking at one in .454 Casull myself.

    What is your thoughts on that Gray SS finish?

    I'm an old blue steel and wood stock guy, Jim, maybe even brushed stainless--but, ya get used to it. Same finish as my M77VT and it's held up really well over a lot of heavy use. Seems like the newer Hawkeyes with that gray aren't as well done.

    That 9.5" barrel should allow you to maximize your accuracy. Don

    Super Redhawks are great, i have the 7 1/2 inch .454 Casull and love the target grey finish, wouldn't want it on all my revolvers but it really makes the SRH stand out. They are great fun to shoot and built to last a lifetime.

    Isn't that a "Super" Redhawk? I've been looking for a first model Redhawk.

    Redhawk in .45 LC

    I've been seriously considering (actually looking for) a Redhawk in .45 LC. Does anyone know how they compare to the Super Redhawk in .454 Casull/.45 LC?
