I could swear that, in the past, I've seen a Ruger DA revolver in 44 mag with a 4" barrel. It was like a non-super Redhawk or something. Or was I just hallucinating? I was just looking at the Ruger website, did a caliber search for all 44 magnum, and the only da revolvers in 44 are Super Redhawks with miles long barrels. (i.e. 7 to 9 inch barrels).
Did Ruger stop making a 4" 44?

The 4" Redhawks in both 44 mag and 45 Colt were pulled from Rugers site a few months back while they were building a new plant. They just have not ramped up production again. Ruger manufactures in cycles.
Here is an old thread about the "discontinued" Redhawk.

Ya the 4" 45 Colt is the money. The Redhawk has a thicker cylinder than the Blackhawk even and also have offset bolt notches. Here's a good article about the 45 Ruger DA's. They can take

I put a 454 cylinder in my 45 Colt RH but it's not needed. More of a novelty I think. It was plenty as a 45 Colt but hey, by the time I was done it didn't cost me anything.A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don’t have one, you’ll probably never need one again

New 4" Redhawks are starting to show up for sale.
The new ones have the interchangeable front sites like the longer barrel version.
I have a pin on HiViz front sight for a 4" Redhawk if there is anyone interested."The older I get, the better I was."

Hello All,,,, thought I'd post a couple of photos of my latest project, enjoy.!!! :topjob:
Ruger SBH Bisley Hunter, cut & re-crowned to 6" & re-fit front sight, added the "Ghost-Ring" rear sight, "Very Quick",+ 2-port job and the forcing cone @ 11deg. also worked over the trigger, and springs, very smooth & crisp @ 3lbs. all saddled up in a "David Johnston" shoulder-rig, total package w/12-rounds @ 4lbs. +/-
I'm really happy with how it handles, very balanced and the 2-port, porting job makes shooting those 320grn. loads "Very" do-able, especially with regards to that 2nd follow-up shot.

I bought my 4" .45 RH after reading a lot of your posts about yours Snyd. I love that gun.
I put some Hogue wood grips on it, and like them, but they seem just a little big. Wish i was handier with a hasp and sand paper.
I have the exact same gun in .44mag - trying to decide if i will keep it or sell it to fund a Bisley in .45. :-)
