i'm a ruger redhawk fan and not ashamed to say it.

I'd like a 41 Redhawk, but they're now priced out of my interest zone. I passed up on one years ago (long enough ago there was a gun shop in Northampton), and haven't seen another in person since.

Just when I thought the Super Redhawk was as ugly as it could get, I find at some point TALO had Ruger build them even uglier than stock:

Form follows function...And when you're alone at night camping in interior Alaska, 90 miles from a road, this will be the sexiest gun you've ever seen...

I've said it before.....I'll say it again.....the srh looks like a snub nose wheel gun with a boner.

Every time I see one I have this urge to roll a condom over the barrel.

No, it won't - because I already know this one exists.

The hoplophilia is strong in this thread!

That's exactly what they are for. Not ugly at all.

I actually like them and they look good with a scope. I need one in 22 Hornet to go with my Ruger 77/22 22 Hornet.

I have a Redhawk .44mag in 5.5"...just shot it last week! I've had it since the late 80's! Fun gun....I love it!

Redhawks are nice.
Super Redhawks are super ugly.

Yep.

I've never seen a revolver that better illustrated the "f*** it, good enough" school of design than the Super Redhawk. Or did they let the accountants design that one? Whatever happened, ugliest revolver ever.

Well, you know the reason they designed the Super Redhawk so bulky & ugly... the infamous flying barrel problem of the 1980's Redhawks.

Unfortunately, I have one too... right smack dab in the middle of the problem serial number range. Bought it brand new and never been able to safely fire it.
