A little more than a 4" .44 corbon load, with a proper grip. In .50ae.

Is it brand new? MK XIX Model? If so, that's a fair price. Not a screaming deal, but fair.

Recoil on the .44 is not bad at all.....couple girlfriends who have tried it really, really liked it.......and the 12 ga...seriously! Who says size doesn't matter?!

i got an ad in the mail from Turners the sale is good nov 24-dec 24

i will be replacing the barrel with the .50 cal .......... so what you are saying is that it will kick alittle harder than .44 hot load?? i enjoy ALOT of recoil will i be happy?????????????

The recoil on the DE .44 mag is surprisingly light.... notably better than the 4" 629. It's probably closer to your G20 shooting +p than the Super Redhawk.

The DE is bulky and heavy though.... you'll probably find that you prefer to carry your Ruger in the field. Not wanting to pack a .44 around kind of defeats the purpose of owning one IMO since it's most useful purpose is field/mountain carry. I've shot the DE pistols and they're fun, but I wouldn't use one other than at the range if that Super Redhawk was an option.

If you want a really versatile autoloader that packs a low-to-mid range .41 magnum punch I would recommend that you look at the G20. It's smaller, lighter, and for the $$ you'll spend on the DE you can pick up a G20 and 6" Jarvis, BarSto, etc and really increase your accuracy/ballistics for a lot less. Once you play with that 10mm in full-house loadings you'll be hooked.... Ask me how I know.

I like the DE, just not for packing around anywhere. Just my $.02......

I might order one this week if thats the one you can interchange the Barrel ??
does any one know..

Yes. All you need for a .50 conversion is the barrel and magazine. That's a good price for a new one. Recoil of the .44 DE is much lighter than in a revolver. Now the .50 is another story.

is there anything else good in the ad?

[Iowegian]

What's the story with the .45 acp note under the DE add? Typo?

Their whole holiday flyer is online:

Good stuff starts around page 16, guns on 25.

S&W 642 for $400 doesn't sound too bad.

[Bobula]

$500 .45 DEs?

[Guns R Tools]

.45 acp for $499.xx is probably for Baby Eagle.
