Anyone have one? I've had one for years in 45 LC. Built like a tank. Don't see them too often and I like obscure guns

I've got three .44 mags; a 6", 8 3/8", and 12". They are great guns.

I shot one in 44 Mag. The most brutal kicking revolver I have ever shot. My .475 Linebuagh is easier.

Here's an article by Lee Martin with a lot of good info.

One of my first handguns. Also in 45 Colt. They are very large but not extremely strong. Nice looking gun.

One of my best friends growing up had one in .44 mag.
Of course, I had a Ruger SBH. We shot IHMSA Competition.
His wasn’t very accurate. He finally sold it and bought a Ruger.

Had a 6" stainless back in the '80's that out-shot my Rugers, and my friend's Rugers (he wasn't happy about that). Back in the '80's it wasn't uncommon for a Ruger to have throats that were smaller than the bore diameter, and my Virginian was a near perfect 1.5 thou over...So mine shot lights out.

I had one in 44 mag and didn't mind it. It wasn't anything like the Redhawk in 44 mag. I recently sold that one because of how it beat up my hands.
