Large Frame
Ruger Large Frame Double-Action Revolvers
When the Ruger Redhawk was first introduced in 1979, it signaled an important
advance in the design of heavy-frame, double-action revolvers.
Ruger's patented double-frame cylinder lock was first used in this design.
The original Redhawk was also the first double-action revolver specifically
designed to handle the powerful .44 Magnum cartridge, and it pioneered the
patented Ruger "single spring" mechanism for both hammer and trigger.
Now these and other genuinely advanced features are also built into the impressive
Super Redhawk and other Ruger revolvers as well. Available in .44
Magnum, .45 Long Colt, .454 Casull, and the new .480 Ruger calibers, the Redhawk
and Super Redhawk are world-renowned for strength, safety,
and rugged reliability.
Both the Redhawk and the Super Redhawk designs feature extra metal in the
top strap and in the critical areas below and surrounding the barrel threads.
The design includes no sideplate, so both sidewalls remain intact as integral
sections of the frame for increased strength and rigidity. This important
advance
allows these revolvers to withstand the stresses imposed by the powerful calibers.
The Super Redhawk, chambered in the new .480 Ruger and the powerful .454
Casull, is ideal for sportsmen using a handgun to hunt big game, and is also
popular among metallic silhouette shooters. The strong extended frame and
use of the Ruger-patented Integral Scope Mounting System on the wide top
strap provide a solid scope-mounting surface, making the Super Redhawk perfect
for big-game hunting. Patented Ruger cushioned grips help absorb
recoil for even more comfortable handling. The .454 also accepts .45 Long
Colt cartridges. The new .480 Ruger cartridge is an exciting new development
in handgun hunting cartridges. It offers approximately a third more energy
than the powerful .44 Magnum, able to stop big game reliably at typical handgun
range.
