I have had a 7.5" Hamilton Bowen built redhawk, unbelievable in every way.
Especially packing in and out of the truck ( unbelievable bad!), and handling the work load I had in the management efforts I managed. It was a night mare to wear around.
Went the opposite direction and bought the S&W mountain gun with the 4" barrel. A dream to pack around, but kinda light weight and scary to shoot the bigger Garrett Cartridges loads out of.
So whats the best compromise? I adore the Freedom Arms 4-3/4" barrel, but maybe the 6" barrel is the better option?
I hate packing long barrels, but I love shooting them. Why can one of these custom guys make a telescoping barrel? Imagine that! Or one that snaps open like a switchblade knife? In our dreams!
