.41MAG Redhawk

110
I have the opportunity to purchase a Ruger Redhawk stainless in .41MAG from a family friend. I have already shot and inspected the gun myself. The owner has only fired 35rnds from the gun, I checked, he still has the empty boxes and reloads. The gun is in excellent shape, looks like it just came out of the box.I want to give him a fair price for it. I figured between $225.00-250.00. Is this a fair price for a weapon that will be sold through family? He had not shot the gun for at least 10 years and said he really has no use for it.Also, I plan on hunting with this in the New England area. Any info on the pros and cons of the .41MAG as a hunting pistol would also be of great help as well. I have read some articles that say if the .41 had come out before the .44MAG there might of never of been a .44. Imagine that? I can't.Thanks Guys

    I did a quick search for pricing on the Ruger Redhawk and it looks like a NIB model is going for somewhere around twice that. I just bought a Taurus 41Mag that I'll be carrying this year during hunting season as backup. I haven't shot it yet, but from what I've heard it should do the trick for just about anything. I did find that ammo is much more expensive than I originally thought and a little difficult to come by in my area. In general, I'd say go for it. It's not much of a risk to pay that price for a nice quality revolver.

    I hunt with a .41 Redhawk and love it. I have an Aimpoint red dot scope on it and it is a real tack driver out to about 75-80 yds which is about as well as I can hold it. I reload most of my bullets. It kicks about 30% less than a 44 and has about 10% less power but it will drop a reasonable sixe deer in a heart beat. If you dont buy it let me be the first to kick your a**. Good luck you wont go wrong

    Actually that is a very fair price,for a very descent gun.

    110: a 100% NIB SS Redhawk will go for between $500 too $600 just like robsguns said but It may take a little while to get it ,, for darn sure a 98% gun will go for $450 to $500 remember this model has NOT been made for the last 10 years and is hard to find in this kind of condition!! and yes it makes a very good deer gun

    Rugster,this is a Redhawk not a Blackhawk.I'd like about a half dozen at $250.00 each.

    Have him take it into a gun store for a price quote (what they would give him for it) and prommise him $20 above whatever they say. Best of both worlds, he gets $20 more than if he just sold it and you get a GREAT deal.

    The .41 is (IMHO) the BEST handgun hunting caliber. The only problem is that there are very few different commercial loadings available and to get the best out of it you must reload. I shoot 270 gr. lead FP with great results. If you buy it, I will share some load data with you.
