Pawn Shop Find Gary Reeder Stealth Hawk

[azdover]

If anybody in the Phoenix area is interested, I stumbled across a Gary Reeder 410 GNR Stealth Hawk while looking for a Single Six at a local pawn shop.  They're asking for $1200 although I bet there's a little wiggle room in that number.  It appears to be a Version 1 conversion and is in pretty good shape other than a few surface scuffs on the bead blasted finish.  It will have to be a local purchase.  The shop can't ship due to policy changes when they got bought out by a bigger company.  If you're interested, message me and I can pass on the shop's address and the manager's contact info.  He also happens to be Ruger single action fan.

For anyone looking that’s a 454 case necked to .410 caliber.
It likes 250-265 grain bullets

Those are awesome guns. I have had success using Reeder on a couple simple Redhawk conversions to 475 and 500 Linebaugh, but I forego any of his "engraving".

It is an awesome round. I had a 5 shot Bisley and it shot great. Another one I should have kept

....I know a lot of you are Recoil Junkies, but the 4.25 and 5.5" .41 Redhawks I have had kick enough with just full power .41 Magnum loads... 250s from a 5.5" run 1450 in a standard Magnum case so with the .410 it will push mid to upper 1500s...and unlike a SA all that recoil comes right back into the web of ones hand...

But that is a GREAT round...have been tempted to send my 5-shot .41 GNR cylinder back to Reeder and have it punched out to .410....
