Ruger Carryhawk Review
This is the first single shot revolver with a birds head grip that ive owned.
Ruger carryhawk review. Ruger and talo have worked together on a pretty cool new blackhawkwith wiley clapp who nicknamed it the carryhawk ruger model 0477 i believe. With products made in america ruger offers consumers almost 700 variations of more than 40 product lines. Not as fast to shoot load unload or reload admittedly but speed isnt always the only criterion. The ruger blackhawk also has a simpler mechanism with less to bend break or bind than a double action revolver a stronger frame than most and simpler ejection.
On this gun ruger used a round butt grip and smooth micarta grips. 4 barrelyes 4 slab sided barrel. The carryhawk is a businesslike version of the long favored blackhawk. Make no mistake im not criticizing the ruger redhawk or any of the ammo i used in this review.
The 420 barrel with adjustable sights is long enough to squeeze solid performance out of the. It fits virtually any hand size and has a positive effect on recoil. The trigger pull 3 12 pounds had a good break with a small amount of over travel. The guns weight 43 oz helps keep the recoil in check.
For more than 70 years ruger has been a model of corporate and community responsibility. They all did exactly as advertised and did it with great gusto. This large frame revolver is one of the thickest heaviest and most robust guns a shooter can own. Is one of the nations leading manufacturers of rugged reliable firearms for the commercial sporting market.
V notch rear sight black matte carbon finish. The carryhawk also has a businesslike finish. The front sight big dot from xs sights systems is impossible to ignore.
