    Colt came out with the swing out cylinder years before S&W - so it is S&W that is ass backwards. Model 1889. Versus S&W's Hand Ejector, Model 1896.

    The trigger pull on the .22lr LCRx is really, really heavy. A lot heavier than a standard LCR. It needs to be to properly ignite rimfire rounds. That being said, the GP100 in .22lr has a much nicer trigger.

Campbells in Duncansville pa has a factory Demo of the super redhawk in 10mm....great price....but for me ( a 10mm fan) this is simply too much gun for the round. Super Redhawks are huge. Not sure why they didnt just make it in a 4 in Redhawk frame....but whatever.
    Yeah I don't understand putting the 10mm in the Super Redhawk myself. The regular Redhawk is more than enough for the rather enemic 10mm. Even the GP100 would have been sufficient for the 10mm though they probably would have opted for a 5 shot instead of 6 in that frame.

    Well, that's kinda disappointing. I actually like the trigger on my LCR quite a bit.

    With any luck Ruger will offer the Redhawk in 10mm. If they can fit 8 in the 357 version, they sure as shit can fit 7 in a 10mm version. I'd buy it if it only held 6, if I'm being honest.

    I like the 3" SP101 and the .327 Mag caliber is pretty interesting. Handy too to be able to shoot anything from .32 S&W Long to the Magnum cartridge. HMMM maybe I can convince Adjima I need a birthday present.

    I have to admit the new 8 shot .357 Redhawk in 5.5" strikes my fancy. I like the older Ruger revolvers but they only made 6 shot .357 Redhawks back then.

    Clements Custom Guns does a 6 spot 10mm conversion on the GP100 but it costs some coin to get it converted. You also don't want to shoot hot 10mm loads through them because the cylinder gets so thin. So I'd say 7 or 10mm in Redhawk should easily be doable.

    Yeah 7 shot in Redhawk would be awesome. I would for sure buy one.
