The Super Redhawk was introduced late in 1987, in.44 Magnum with 7.5- and 9.5-inch barrel lengths. The final product used the same trigger design and same grip panels as the.357 Magnum GP100, but had a larger, stronger frame with integrated scope bases. The Super Redhawk received positive reviews, edging out similar offerings from Smith & Wesson in accuracy and price. The Super Redhawk was only available in stainless steel with a number of finishes.
Ruger PC Carbine, 9mm, Threaded Barrel. RUGER CARBINE 44 MAG, EARLY SERIAL NUMBER. Mint bore, works very well, no problems with the wood. Ruger Redhawk If you can’t solve a problem with eight.357 Magnum rounds, it probably isn’t solvable. The sight is mounted in a dovetail, and a spring-loaded pin above the barrel’s bore allows the sight to be replaced. I noted several sources for replacement sights of various configurations.
The standard finish is brushed steel, with a semi-gloss look. Polished, high-gloss versions have also been offered, though this option is not currently available. Stainless steel one-inch scope rings are included, using the standard Ruger lockup common to all Ruger integral bases. These rings easily allow removing the scope from the handgun, without significantly altering zero, or eye-relief, once the scope is re-installed. The Super Redhawk uses different front and rear rings, with the rear ring being shorter than the front ring due to differences in frame height. Ruger Model 77 bolt-action rifles also use a higher ring in the rear than in the front. Despite plans to drop the revolver with the introduction of the Super Redhawk, the original Redhawk (with the barrel thread lubricant issue corrected) remains in production as of 2015.
Many shooters prefer the more classic lines of the Redhawk, especially those who do not plan to use a scope. The Redhawk is also available with different barrel lengths, 4, 5.5 and 7.5 inches. Versions of the Super Redhawk with 20-inch barrels were produced for the UK market with serial numbers in the 551-5xxxx and 551-7xxxx range. Model numbers were KSRH-21-357 (.357 Magnum) and KSRH-21 (.44 Magnum). 200 were made in total evenly split between the.357 and.44 for the importers. The vast majority had their length cut down for competition shooting and only a small handful remain in the original long barrelled version.454 Casull Introduced in 1997, the Super Redhawk chambered in was the first six-shot revolver in that caliber. The cylinder and numerous conversions only hold 5 rounds.
To handle the extreme pressures of the.454 Casull without changing the design of the cylinder, Ruger used a different alloy and heat treatment process to increase its strength. The frame material is the same as standard Super Redhawks, but frame and cylinder are colored differently by use of a target grey finish produced by tumbling the parts in special polishing media. The.454 Casull model is actually marked as '.454 Casull /.45 Colt', and is capable of shooting the slightly shorter rounds. The.45 Colt is a less powerful round to shoot, lacking the severe muzzle blast and recoil of the.454 Casull. The option of using.45 Colt expands versatility, reduces the cost of shooting, and reduces wear.480 Ruger The year 2003 saw the release of Ruger's first cartridge, the, developed for the Super Redhawk. The.480 Ruger is built on the same frame as the.454 Casull, and was introduced as a six-shot model. While the.480 Ruger is not loaded to the rifle-like pressures of the.454 Casull, the bigger (.475 caliber, 12 mm) bore allows the use of heavier bullets than the.454 Casull, making it a good choice for handgun hunting.
So I am going to have to use serial to USB adapters and worst case scenario I will have to plug both adapters into a single USB hub. Four pillars 4 2 serial to usb. This program will be running on a laptop with NO serial ports, and possibly not enough USB ports. I'm writing a program in C++ that will, among other things, need to control two devices that are run by serial port.
The.480 Ruger operates at far lower pressures than the.454 Casull, making it more comfortable to shoot. The standard Hornady 325 gr JHP.480 Ruger cartridge can produce a muzzle velocity of 1350 ft/s (405 m/s) and generates one-third more muzzle energy than the standard.44 Magnum cartridge, with substantially less recoil than other big-bore hunting handgun cartridges. The large, heavy bullet still offers excellent penetration for big game hunting.
