That is the conclusion I keep comming to myself...

I have gone through several Redhawks- they are well built strong decent sights smooth DA but off the scale(Literally) and 8 pound Single action from the factory triggers just vex me. They will smoothy up and a spring kit is a good idea. But, I will always prefer my Mountain Guns over the Redhawks. I have a 4" 44 and a 7.5" 44 Redhawk that we use to form holsters around. I will be casting aluminum form guns in the next week or so they will be 2 of the first to get cast, so I can sell em.
A good friend that works for me, has had my Mountain Lion (Same as the MG) for a year now... he was waiting for us to cast the redhawk so he could claim it as his own. After a year of toting the S&W, he asked if he could hang onto it as he came to the same conclusion...These get carried and used on a daily basis

These are strong accurate pistols but even in Alaska, I tended to leave them in the safe and carry a Mountain Gun... the 454 literally got left behind with a friend that had a remote cabin [image]
