The Big Three .44 Magnums

Danjet500 · Jul 27, 2011

This is my interpretation of The Big Three; a 5.5" Ruger Redhawk, a 6" S&W Model 29-2 and a 6" Colt Anaconda. I am partial to .44 magnums and like all of these for different reasons. These are all subjective and JMHO. I like the Ruger for the trigger. It is a little lighter and smoother than the other two. I like the looks of the Smith. Something about it just says "This is how a DA revolver should look". And I like shooting the Colt the best even though the trigger is not the lightest or smoothest. I think it is because it is a little nose heavy and tames some of the recoil. All in all, I really enjoy shooting each one of them, just for different reasons. Hope you enjoy the pics.

Makes sense if you're just talking double action but if all revolvers are considered I'd have to add the Super Blackhawk.

Very nice - all three.

Nice! And some great pics!

Now you need to get a Dan Wesson 44 to make it a foursome...

I looked at and handled a Colt Anaconda the other day - I've never shot one, but it was a nice looking revolver.
