I like the grips and feel of the s&w, but my heart belongs to the Super Blackhawk.....
Welp, dangit... (good "problem" to have?)
I do not "need to sell" my DEAGLE now, likely I'll just keep it. But like many of us here at the HPFF, that means stocking up on the caliber, accessorizing, adding caliber companions and so forth š¹
@Pistolkitty enabled me with the Rossi 38spc/357mag lever gun,
and now I am hoping to get lucky and find one in 44. Then a revolver maybe?
What do you all think of the Taurus? I really love the feel of the old style, to me that means "not semi-automatic" so a modern revolver is about perfect to scratch that particular itch. Are there any other less expensive 44mag wheel guns you gals and guys like? I'll likely end up with a Smiff someday, and Ruger is just too strong to say no to. Especially if I get to reloading. Which I intend to do.
I had nearly bought an "ASTRA" in 44mag once upon a time, but it was a bit worn and I was still quite a newb. I'm wondering about things to avoid wasting time on, too.

You should cash in those gold nuggets we found digging tunnels...

Good advice. Except now it's a 3 way tie LOL! I'd be fine with a Taurus, I'm sure. A Smith or Ruger checks all the boxes but then I'd be more like looking at is as a collectible. Especially an S&W.
@Pistolkitty hey the Blackhawk is the DA/SA swing out cylinder and the Redhawk is the SA gate load, Correct? My girl's FIL has the SA with the loading door, kind of a throwback (still totes COOL) but I prefer a modern style wheel gun.
I know I can look it up, but I'm getting ready for work.
Did I tell y'all Mole got a new job? Electrical Dept. at Lowe's

Got it, Red > Black. Add SUPER.
I saw a good article on all of the models from Taurus up to Korth.

Best .44 Magnum Revolvers: A Buyer's Guide
While browsing .44 Magnum revolvers, there are a few important things to keep in mind. Here are six top .44 Magnum revolver options to consider.

Good article covering pretty much all mid level to top end 44mag revolvers.
Iām leaning toward the Stainless Taurus Tracker in .44 mag. Already got the model 627 in .357, and I really like it. If the .44 is just as good, then it should be near perfect . Only choice left would be either a 4ā or a 6ā..I do not "need to sell" my DEAGLE now, likely I'll just keep it. But like many of us here at the HPFF, that means stocking up on the caliber, accessorizing, adding caliber companions and so forth š¹
