New Toy on the way home from the San Antonio Get Together
Cabellas is normally a 90 minute trip from Kingsland, so you can imagine we don't go there very often.
But, since it was on the way home from the San Antonio shoot. . . . .
We stopped in.
Bought a few things. Had dinner in the Deli. Shopped a lot.
And found this beautiful lightly used 4" Redhawk just looking for a new owner:

Nice trigger pull - it measures just under 8 pounds SA, but feels a lot less. Nice and crisp. I handled one of these 15 years ago and the trigger was very creepy.
Little to no wear on it, it came with the box and paperwork and was manufactured in April of 2011.
I've been looking for one of these for when Mrs. Chemist and I go hiking in bear country.
I think it will make a nice addition to the collection, especially since I already have the Ruger Deerslayer carbine.
Of course, I have to wait until Saturday to shoot it. But I'll survive.
