I took it in trade today at a gunshow. I had a WWII 1911A1 that I only recently learned was a collector's item. I wanted all cash for the .45, but had to take this in trade to get anything near what I wanted out of the collector. I got a good amount in cash back to help make the house payment this month.
Best of all, no database or official of the good ole U S of A knows I own it now.

super blackhawk or redhawk? i had a .22 single six and it was a very well built revolver. i have shot a redhawk .44 and loved it, but couldn't hit shit with it.
i am very accurate with my cz-75b though.
let's go shooting!

It`s not fair I tell you!, I can`t even have a slug gun without a license!

If I get to move to Kansas, we will have to get together over Slicks and guns.
Hey - Guns 'N Slicks - sounds like something new!
Your CZ-75 is a nice little shootin' iron.
This is a Super Redhawk, double action .44 magnum. I'll probably need to sell it to get the value out of it, but if I can, I'll keep it.
I am more concerned about recoil than anything. Those of you that do not know me don't know I have small hands, so handling that monster might be a problem.
I had a Blackhawk in .357 and liked it. I also once had a Super Blackhawk in .44, but shooting it was murder. The gun was too light to control, even with a 7" barrel. That might be why you had trouble with it, Chris. The .44 is inherently a ballistically stable round. Stability increases as the bullet weight increases. Increased weight means a longer bullet and better balance with respect to the ogive. Anything above 200 grains is good, 240 - 260 seems to be the sweet spot, and 300 seems to be the upper limit.
This thing is much heavier, though.
If I keep it, I'll go on ahead and get reloading dies for it.
So, when do we go shooting, at SlickStock maybe?
PS: I reload .380, 9mm, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, .45 Auto, .223, .243, .308, 7mm Magnum, and .30-06.
When funds allow it!
