Ruger Redhawk 41 mag info?

[thayn61]

I have came across a Stainless Ruger red hawk 41mag with its origonal box and a 7.5" barrel has a few scratches but nothing bad. i am just wondering what the going rate for one of these are. Any info is greatly appreciated thank you. i don't have any pictures

It can be priced from $695 to $1,200+++. Depending on condition the only problem is everybody wants one.

What is the asking price? Do you want it? Can you afford it? If yes, then try to negotiate a lower price if possible, then buy it. Years from now you will either a) be happy you bought it and forget that you might have been able to find one cheaper, or b) regret that you didn't buy it.

I paid $650 for my 5-1/2" SS Redhawk 41 mag about 2 years ago before prices started to climb.

I had Redhawks in 41 and 44 in both barrel lengths when they first came out and quite frankly unless you need the double action I would get a Blackhawk in 41 mag. the quality of the Blackhawk and Super Blackhawk was a lot better and shot better also

My experience was just the opposite. I have a 41 mag Blackhawk and a 44 mag Super Blackhawk. I prefer my Redhawk over either of them and I shoot the Redhawk much better.

I think the stainless ones are more common, but still pretty rare. I recently got a blued .41 redhawk w/7 1/2 barrel. No box, but sounds like the same type condition you describe. Paid $600, and think that was a pretty good deal.

Red hawks in .41 mag are hard to come by. Ones on GB usually START around $800 and up from there.

Mine shoots great, and is a real conversation piece. Buy it, you won't regret it.

.357 red hawk

I sold a .357 stainless Redhawk with a 5.5 barrel with box papers everything that came with it when new. I bought it new shot maybe 100 rounds through it over the next 25 years & sold it for $650.00 about 5 years ago. Last time I saw a .41 or .357 Redhawk was a couple of years ago for $950.00 range & they sold quickly.

My limited experience differs..

I picked up a used 41 Blackhawk and with the stag grips that had been added, it was a real beast!. I do not have a Redhawk but do have two 657's and they are definitely preferable. I just put Hogue rubber on the BH but have not shot it yet. If that doesn't work, it looks like I should have not trouble "unloading" it. The Stags are going on my 357BH

Last year a friend called me from a gun show and told me a guy had a 6" 657 on his table for $500. I told my friend to see if the guy would hold it until I could get there and he would not. I went anyway arriving there an hour later. The 657 was gone. Someone had traded a 7 1/2" .41 mag BH on it so I bought it for $350 OTD. It shoots very good.

I got one with the 5.5" tube used for $375 about 12 years ago. Planned on using it for hikes. I traded it off because it kinda needed a gun carriage, but it shot just fine. So did my 4 5/8" Blackhawk . . . so did my Model 57 4" . . . the only .41 I've ever had that wasn't outstandingly accurate was a 5-shot Taurus Total Ti (which was just fine, but wasn't up to the usual standard I'd come to expect from the round).

These days, I'd expect to see $600 on the price tag for such a gun.

I'd guess in the $650.00-PLUS range for stainless. The blue 41 Redhawks will be considerably more if the seller knows what he has. They're pretty scarce I understand.
