The Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan in .44RemMag caliber provides all the benefits of the Redhawk series, plus it offers a padded grip, forged barrel, and an extended frame for clamping rings.
Ruger Redhawk Alaskan is a double-action revolver chambered for .44 Remington Magnum, designed as an extremely compact and highly durable sidearm intended for harsh conditions, including dangerous game defense and heavy-duty outdoor use. The construction is based on a corrosion-resistant stainless steel frame, engineered to handle high-pressure magnum loads.
The revolver operates in a double-action mechanism (DA). A transfer bar safety system provides an enhanced level of protection against accidental discharge.
The barrel measures 2.5" (64 mm) and is cold hammer-forged, ensuring high durability, accuracy, and ease of maintenance. It features a 1:20" RH twist rate, optimized for .44 Magnum cartridges. The sighting system consists of a replaceable ramp front sight with a colored insert and an adjustable rear sight, allowing fast and precise target acquisition.
The cylinder has a capacity of 6 rounds and uses a triple-locking system (front, rear, and bottom lock-up) for maximum alignment strength and reliable operation shot after shot. The frame is heavily reinforced and extended, with extra material in the top strap, sidewalls, and barrel mounting areas to withstand the pressures of powerful big-game loads.
Ergonomics are provided by a Hogue Tamer grip with an internal recoil-absorbing cushion positioned under the web of the hand, reducing perceived recoil. The grip frame also allows for the installation of custom grips.
In terms of dimensions, the Ruger Redhawk Alaskan weighs approximately 1,276 g, has an overall length of 194 mm, and a 6-round capacity, making it an ultra-compact yet extremely robust revolver designed for demanding field conditions.
