1)Thanks for the compliment! And Yes, I am grinning from ear to ear-since this .357 Redhawk was especially hard for me to find(Took many years)!:banghead:
2)Well, my intent was not to make anyone jealous-but, I understand the feeling-because, I have seen so many guns posted on the various gun forums that I could only dream about owning! But, we all get lucky once in awhile-and, for any guns I most likely could never own, I'm thankful to be able to view pictures of these "Dream" guns on those gun forums.
Call me stupid/uninformed/narrow-minded (whatever), but why? I really like Ruger revolvers and own several, including a 4" GP100 (.357) and a 5.5" Redhawk (.44 Mag). Love 'em both. But I don't see the attraction of a .357 Redhawk. You're carrying a whole lot of extra weight for a .357 cartridge projector. What am I missing here? Maybe it takes a collector's mindset?
Beautiful gun, by the way. My only point is that it wouldn't turn my head ... unless I could buy it for a song and flip it for a hefty profit! If I did that, I might be able to afford sending my Redhawk to Bowen for an Alpine conversion.
Why would I be attracted to this gun? A few reasons really:
1) It's a curiosity. Very rare.
2) Way overly strong platform for that cartridge. I have a thing for overbuilt guns. This might be a little too much of a good thing, but I still love the idea of a gun that cannot be killed by mere mortals.
4) A gun that could be loaded with the hottest loads known to mankind and take them even better than a GP100 (which is one hell of a trick!!!)
5) Recoil reduction. Even the absolute heaviest loads would be fairly tame.
Very cool, especially in the box. Congrats! I had a chance to buy one - not NIB. I passed and, apart from the chance that I could have made some good money (was offered to me at $225), I couldn't persuade myself that I was going to do anything with it. The .357M RH always amazed me - the cylinder is beyond overkill!
