Hi all,
I picked up a Redhawk in .44 mag about two weeks ago. Does anyone have experience with Pachmyr grips on this gun? Its the 7.5 inch version. The wood grips are ok, but there is no texture at all on them and I have a hard time using HKS speed loaders with it- the factory grips get in the way of the speed loader when I try to reload the cylinder.
I also have a scope question. I'm debating on whether or not to scope this gun. It looks like it wore a scope at some point from the marks on the barrel rib. What are the options for mounting an optic?
My Redhawk was built in 1980, according to the serial number. It sure is some pistol and in awesome shape for being nearly 30 years old. I think I'm going to have to hunt down another with a shorter barrel to keep it company.
Thanks,
Maurice
