The Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan, chambered in .454 Casull, is engineered for demanding operational environments and high-pressure cartridge performance. This revolver incorporates an extended frame design, adding material to the top strap, sidewalls, and barrel mounting areas to effectively manage substantial load pressures. Its configuration facilitates the deployment of potent hunting ammunition, positioning it as a formidable sidearm for backcountry carry or a specialized instrument where significant stopping power is a primary requirement.
Key Features
Robust Construction
- The triple-locking cylinder mechanism secures the cylinder at three distinct points within the frame, ensuring consistent alignment and operational reliability.
- This model features a durable, corrosion-resistant satin stainless steel finish applied to the barrel, frame, and cylinder.
Recoil Mitigation
- Equipped with a Hogue Finger Groove Tamer Monogrip, which integrates an internal recoil cushion, this revolver significantly mitigates felt recoil from powerful .454 Casull and .45 Colt loads.
- This design enhances shooter control and mitigates fatigue during extended use. Its dual chambering capability offers inherent ammunition versatility.
Precision Components
- The 2.5-inch barrel is cold hammer-forged, contributing to its structural integrity and precision potential.
- Sighting is managed by an adjustable rear sight precisely paired with a fixed, replaceable insert ramp front sight, providing practical aiming for varied engagement scenarios.
Operational Security
- A patented transfer bar mechanism enhances operational security, preventing the hammer from contacting the firing pin unless the trigger is fully engaged, thus minimizing the risk of accidental discharge.
