Default Re: Buying new pistol, need advice
Smith & Wesson are definitely pricey -- -- they're just what I'm familiar with. I know Ruger makes some fine 44 mags, and their pricing is more reasonable. Ruger revolvers are known for their robust frames that hold up well under heavy loads. I took a look at their website and saw the Redhawk RH-445 with a 5 1/2" barrel that looks like a really nice package. MSRP under $700. Probably get it for less if you look around. I see they also have leather holsters made specifically for their guns. Very nice.

IMHO, a Ruger would be a rock solid choice in 44 mag.

Get other opinions, but those are mine.

Hope this helps.
