This was my favorite revolver I have ever owned. Solid frame and great grip was a perfect combo to handle even the hottest .44 Mag loads. This was the first gun I ever bought from buds. The process was simple and Buds is and always will be my go to for ordering firearms!

Worth the money . Actually is an easy carry with a small holster . Nice hunting sidearm .

This gun is a keeper! It's a snub nose 44 MAG, so no hiding it anywhere on your body. The wieght helps with the recoil, and you can shoot any load of 44 MAG out of it. The whole reason for this gun is to strap to my chest when I'm heading deep into bear country. It's a woods gun. It is expensive, but if/when I would need to use it, I won't care what I spent on it as long as my family and I can get home safely. Diamond D Guide chest holster is a good addition. The one thing I wish it had, other than a lower price tag, is an orange front sight. The steel sight can get lost in failing light, but again if I am shooting at a threatening target, it's probably getting closer to me very quickly.

I knew I had to have this pistol when I first saw it 3 years ago. It took that long to get it and I am thrilled with it. It's basically artwork and tank combinations. I will have it till the day I die and leave it for someone special. Buds is awesome as usual this is purchase #6 or7.

I’m so happy with my new Alaskan 44 mag. Haven’t shot it yet but will real soon. I had one before and had to sell it due to financial problems. Couldn’t wait to get another. Thanks to Buds. Awesome and easy process as always. Wish they get there hands on the casual. Buds doesn’t disappoint.

Very nice gun. Recoil is extremely manageable. This gun and the gp100 7shot has definitely turned me into a Ruger revolver guy. Ruge'rs revolvers are hands down the best I've ever owned.

I received this gun over a year ago, I've shot hundreds of rounds since from cowboy loads up to 300gr. Absolutely love it and everyone that gets to see/shoot it does too. I've bought some gp100 grips for it too had to have a spacer and locator pin made to adapt. It's a beast shooting 240gr factory loads with compact grips.

Exactly what I was looking for. Bud's did an excellent job in communication and delivery was right on time. 5 Stars... I'd order again.

First time dealing with Buds and gotta say it was great, layaway plan, shipping, everything went perfect which is rare these days. Anyway the firearm is great, built like a tank, recoil on this 44mag is very minimal compared to others i have shot and just all around a great reliable firearm out of the box. First time shooting it the firearm ran great put 60 rounds in it just noticed it needed some lube mainly for the ejector so after cleaning and lubing it's easily my favorite and a gun i can pass down for many generations, this thing will last forever. Thank you Buds for attention to detail and customer's needs. Never thought I'd be able to buy a firearm of this caliber but the layaway plan is awesome. I'm already looking at a few other firearms you guys carry, now that i know how you guys handle business this will be the only way I will buy from now on. Thanks again!

Super sturdy, excellent quality. Well balanced in hand, and surprisingly easy to aim.

The absolute best large frame revolvers made are the Ruger super RedHawks if you want to hunt get the model with a longer barrel if you just want to make sure that a bull doesn't get you at the farm or if you're a hike or in the woods it'll take a grizzly bear down with ease it will take anything out there that could hurt you down with ease using the buffalo bore .340gr .44mag + P + Hard Cast Flat Nose which only certain models can fire that heavy of a round with the powder charge of Ruger large frame models will Except the post 2005 vaquero but as for this pistol 100% the best very accurate and gets the job done in one shot one drop

I just love this piece of artwork sculpted out of a solid chunk of stainless steel , beautiful just love it . and being a 44 magnum the most powerful handgun in the world , wait a minute did I just say that ? well it used to be ! haha but this gun is impressive to hold , shoot and own . It is very accurate for a big caliber with a short barrel .. Thank You BUDS !! John

Five star review for a five star gun. I love most things in .44 magnum with the Alaskan being high on that list. This thing is built like a tank and I'm certain it will outlast several generations of shooters. Many people think that it would experience heavy recoil because of the short barrel, but are quite surprised after shooting it. Even the heaviest of .44 mag loads are easily managed by this short barreled heavyweight. Longer barrels definitely provide better ballistics in the .44 magnum, but they aren't nearly as fun to shoot. If you're considering one of these, just get it.

What a BEAST! I LOVE this gun!! I have been salivating over this revolver for some time and finally pulled the trigger on it (pun intended). There is something about a 6lb hand cannon with a 2 inch barrel in your hands that gives you a sense of security and bad assness :-) I actually hit a 10" AR500 steel gong from 88 yards with this revolver when messing around right outta the box (out of 10 shots) and took down a 120lb sow at 10yrds with it right between the eyes. The sow dropped dead in it's tracks and barely even twitched shooting 225gr hollow points. Not only is this gun beautiful, but super functional!

This is without a doubt my favorite hand gun. Built like a tank, feels so solid that I know it is one I will be able to pass down to next generations. The grip feels perfect and absorbs loads that would make other guns fear. I highly recommend he Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan 44 mag. Buds got this pistol to me in 8 days and arrived perfectly.

Great looking revolver purchased on Bud's lay a way plan, (my 4th purchase on this plan)! It's a perfect match for the Ruger Alaskan 454 I got last month, after all you need both, right. Bright satin finish, everything looks straight, and the action is as smooth as snot on glass. Very fair price on a solid, solid revolver that looks like it will be in service for several generations of my family. Top marks for Ruger products, if you what quality look no further then a pistol in this caliber.

I got 99 problems, but a bear ain't one, hahaha!!!!! This snub nose, .44 Magnum, handcannon is super sweet! Took it to the range as soon as I looked it over, put 50 rounds of .44 Special(it was all the range had at the time, no problems whatsoever. Delivery was super fast, super easy. This is my 3rd gun from Bud's, and my 4th is on the way. Thank you Bud's, for the great service, and incredibly low prices, couldn't find this gun under $1100 anywhere. And thank you Trading Place Pawn and Gun Range, friendly, and helpful staff.

Wow. What a great pistol. It is heavy and needs to be to handle the recoil. I put 20 rounds of Magtech 240gr through it with no issues. The recoil is stout. I followed that with 6 rounds of Buffalo Bore 340 Gr +p+ rounds. Holy cow! That's a wrist breaker. Pistol performed flawlessly. Leave the Hogue rubber grips on if you are going to shoot a lot. If you don't you'll end up with a bruised hand! Buds was great and Bullseye Guns and Supply did the transfer as usual with no issues.

Great Job Buds! As usual, excellent service and no hassle! Got exactly what was I looking for. The Ruger Alaskan is a beast! It will make a great addition to my collection. Thanks Buds!

One of the best built and looking revolver on the planet. As being said the revolver will speak of itself.

First time buying from Buds and it went smoothly highly recommend buy from here, Now to the Ruger Alaskan, you wont find it for a better price any where else, the Revolver came in perfect condition, hogue grips have a dampener in them to absorb the recoil which helps a lot. Very fast shipping when straight to my FFL and even sent my FFL a tracking number. HIGHLY recommend budsgunshop and this Ruger.
