Grail gun happiness

[357smallbore]

It doesn't get much better than an original Ruger Redhawk in 357 magnum. Replaced the wood grips with a nice set of Craig Spegel grips.

This was my Grail gun I had searched for, 20+ years, finally in 2023 I was successful.

Speigel grips are rubber? Thought they were all wood?

The smallbore Redhawk was my grail gun too. Its crazy heavy, none too accurate, and totally impractical, but I love it.

that’s CRAZY HUGE!

reminds me of the F850 ( or whatever) truck from the 90’s. Seen one cruising on the Strip at Myrtle Beach back when I was young

These are from the early '90s when he did them for Uncle Mike's

Wow, look at those cylinders wall thickness! What a beast.

 

[ChiefTJS]

I had one of them about 25 years ago. Wish I hadn't sold that one.

 

[hannstv]

I don't think I have ever seen cylinder walls that thick.

Every time I see one of these the 16 year old idiot in the back of my head goes "how hot can we load this one"

 

[PistoleroWadcutterGANG]

The start of a very bad idea. "Hmmmmm I wonder if 60,000 PSI is possible" .... Later on, his friends remember him as a carefree type gone to sooon. LOL, BIGG OLE SOUTHERRN DANG!

That is a very cool Grail Gun @357smallbore

@NIGHTLORD40K is that a 7.5” barrel?

Both of your six shooters look great. I have been hoping to come across a .45 Colt Redhawk with a 4” barrel. One of these days…

The “Shelby Slot” mag wheel look of the .357 Redhawk is awesome.

Stay safe.
