This eight-round, all-stainless steel Ruger Redhawk with a 2.75" barrel is relatively compact, powerful and offers a significant capacity increase over six-round revolvers. This new Redhawk is supplied with three full moon clips and features a fully adjustable rear sight, a red ramp front sight and hardwood grip panels. 

Features include a single-spring mechanism that allows for a smooth, light trigger pull; a triple-locking cylinder that locks into the frame at the front, rear and bottom for more positive alignment and dependable operation; and a patented transfer bar mechanism to guard against accidental discharge.
