Why the Super Black Hawk?
Always preferred the Super Red Hawk.
Both are 44 Mag.
If you don’t mind carrying it, the Super Redhawk would be great. I have always liked the Super Blackhawk tho the S&W model 29 might actually be a better choice.
I don’t know why. Most people I have seen have the Super Black Hawk. I have nothing against the Red Hawk, its a fine hand gun.
I meant people who spend a lot of time in grizzly country
geologists, well drillers ,foresters etc. Those are the people who I have known working in grizzly country.
Probably because the Super Black hawk is cheaper single action......but I dunno for sure.These kind of guys and gals carry guns because they have to, not because they hunt or carry for sport , they do not want to use it unless they have to.Most of then complain about having to carry the extra weight. It beats getting eaten.The gun is just another tool to them.
Single action vs double/single. A bit cheaper. I’ve read the perceived recoil of the Black Hawk is a bit gentler, but doubt I’m sophisticated enough to notice the difference. Probably personal preference, though I’ve never shot a Red Hawk. I acknowledge that along with a Black Hawk I’m one of the few people here who carry grizzly spray as well. Hope never to have to use both.
