There's a club!?!? The 44magnum was the very first handgun I bought myself when I got my pistol permit. I've been in love ever since. Not a really great pic but here she is
Ruger Super Blackhawk
No. I bought them from some guy on Ebay. Two days later, I saw what 41 Magnum had. :banghead: I like what I have alright, but will buy from 41 Magnum next time...
Put a scope on my Redhawk and took it out for the first time today. Found that I have rifles that are not as accurate as this thing. I was truly amazed. Working up handloads with 240gr EK bullets for comfort and speed. I do not know what powder the red box ammo is loaded with but the 2400 I use is pleasant to shoot.
I am so impressed with this handgun that I will be hunting deer with it in Arkansas this year.
Bad cellphone pic, but I'll take something better later. My Ruger Super Blackhawk, and
I'll also get a pic of my Marlin 1894 too.
We were shooting out at my wife's family farm in GA this weekend, and with the Blazer rounds, the SB was a real pussycat. I'd have felt like plinking if ammo wasn't so pricey. Definitely the first caliber on my list to start reloading.
My first handgun was a Virginian Dragoon in .44 mag., and it was the first caliber I reloaded for. I just sold it about a year ago. This is my only .44 now:
I love shooting it and have planned for years on having a lever .44 mag. I may have to find another single action first though.
I want either a 4" 629 mountain gun, or a 3" and also have plans for a Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan(that might be in .454 instead though) And I plan to get a lever action .44mag.
Can I join? Here are my pair - 629-6's, a 4" & 6", sporting Ahrends grips - fine for my .44 Russians, Specials, and mediocre Magnums:
I have S&W/Hogue .500 Magnum monogrips for real Magnum use - great for absorbing some of the recoil impulse with the resultant padded backstrap. Below is my 6" sporting those grips, a SS Weigand ramp, and a Weaver H2 2 x 28 handgun scope:
My 6" is too much fun plinking with just it's iron sights and wood grips.
ruger super blackhawk, 7 1/2 in. barrel
triple K laramie holster and drop belt.
this is my first and (currently) only .44 mag but im afraid i have fallen in love with the caliber! i had been planning on getting a couple different .357 revolvers (probably still will, someday) but for now i think those plans will be replaced with more .44s. definatly looking real hard at a 5.5" redhawk, maybe a 9.5 super redhawk to set up with a scope specifically for long range hunting. gotta get through the holidays first lol.
