I absolutely dislike the grip of the Ruger Redhawk. I used to own one in .45 Colt. Ended up sending it Hamilton Bowen where he swapped out its barrel into a Ruger Alaskan in .454 Casull. Bowen makes the conversions of that particular line of Ruger SuperRedhawk frames and the results are...

I'd actually prefer to have Crimson Trace make one of their LaserGuards for the Bodyguard 2.0. It would still be a great pocket carry and make close range holepunching easier and more accurate.

Mag-Na-Porting I've had Mag-na-Port Quad Port my 329PD and do their standard 2-port on my 396NG. I also installed the Sorbothane grips that S&W uses for their 500 on my 329PD. That combination makes shooting standard 240 gr .44 Mag reasonably comfortable and certainly much easier for follow-up...

Altamont N- Frame Grip Count me in, too. Those look nice enough to grace one of my old N-Frames.

I got to thinking about your wife's problem. Why don't you try a SCCY CPX-3? It's DAO, holds 10+1 rounds, and you can get the ArmaLaser TR-10 laser for it. If you install the M-Carbo trigger kit in it (which is an easy install), the trigger pull will be less than 5 lbs. I have this exact set-up...

Performance Center EZ NDZ Performance website lists their grip safety kit for the 9mm PC EZ grip safety. Unfortunately, they don't appear to have one for the .380EZ.

Shield .380 EZ Problem with the NDZ grip safety kit is that they don't list it for the .380EZ, only for the 9mmEZ and Equalizer. Several commentors on the NDZ website stated that when NDZ came out with one for the .380EZ, they'd buy one for the .380EZ their wives use.

Hamilton Bowen conversion to .44 Spl A decade or so ago, I had Hamilton Bowen convert a 357 Blackhawk to 44 Spl. Note that Hamilton's engraving looks exactly like it came from Ruger. The stag grips are from Elen Hunting and Importing if memory serves me correctly.

S&W made their own commemorative Model 3 Schofield Back in Y2K, S&W's Performance Center released their own Model 3 Schofield commemorative. They were actually chambered for 45 S&W. I have two of them, one nickel-plated and one blued. Here are a couple of quick photos of the blued one. I also...

I have a Model 396NG, which is a .44 Spl L-Frame, but in black and without the hump-shroud of the hammer. I've had mine Mag-na-ported and it is a favorite of mine.

That loose fit of the slide dovetail is intentional. Leupold has you torque the DeltaPoint Micro to 25 inch-pounds. That definitely holds the DeltaPoint Micro in place. It also makes it easy to make sure you get the DeltaPoint Micro centered before you torque the mounting screws down.

Received my Deltapoint Micro on Sunday. Installed it and started practicing dryfire exercises to see how the Micro worked compared to standard sights. I found that my normal presentation worked fine. I did not have any of the issues that some of the YouTube folks apparently had. Went to the...

Tell you my experience in a week or two I've got 71-year-old eyes and have trained myself to use red dot sights over the past year. I like them, so I thought, like you, that the Delta Point Micro might just be the trick to use for my M&P 40 (original version). I really love this handgun, and...

Dan Wesson Model 744 (.44 Mag) with three barrels - 4", 6", & 8". I have not found another revolver that has as smooth an action, both Single and Double, straight from the factory. Mine is a pre-CZ ownership revolver. It is a real pleasure to shoot...and hunt with.

Still got my 25-5 which I purchased new in the 1977-78 timeframe. It is truly the last gun I would sell. My kids get to fight over it when I'm gone. Mine has a 4" barrel.
