Key Features & Construction
Caliber Versatility
The Redhawk is designed for operational flexibility, chambering both high-pressure .357 Magnum and standard-pressure .38 Special ammunition. This allows for diverse application, from defensive scenarios to target practice.
Extended Capacity
An 8-round cylinder capacity provides a substantial ammunition loadout for a revolver of its class, optimizing for extended engagements or competitive use without frequent reloads.
Optimized Barrel Length
The 5.5-inch barrel length is meticulously selected to balance an extended sight radius for enhanced aiming precision with practical maneuverability, ensuring effective handling and ballistic performance.
Robust Stainless Steel Construction
This revolver is fabricated entirely from high-grade stainless steel. This material selection ensures superior structural integrity, resistance to impact, and exceptional longevity, even under rigorous operational cycles.
Configurable Sighting System
The sighting system features a precision-adjustable rear sight paired with a user-replaceable front sight. This configuration enables precise elevation and windage zeroing, allowing the operator to optimize point of impact for varying ammunition types or distances.
Integral Optics Mounting
Integral scope mounts are meticulously machined directly into the receiver frame. This design facilitates direct and secure attachment of optical aiming devices without requiring aftermarket bases or adapter plates, maintaining a low profile and maximizing mounting stability.
Performance & Utility
The substantial mass of the Redhawk chassis effectively mitigates felt recoil, contributing to enhanced shooter comfort during extended firing sessions and facilitating rapid, controlled follow-up shots. This inherent stability positions the Redhawk as a dependable choice for personal defense applications, a robust implement for various types of hunting ammunition, and a consistently performing component of any serious shooter’s range equipment.
