    Gunsmithing Ruger's Redhawk?

    This is an idle curiosity query. Has the rendering of S&W's "N" frame revolvers into more portable "Mountain Guns" by thinning shorter barrels and, perhaps, other skeletonizing occurred (by way of a gunsmith) on Ruger's Redhawk revolvers? I specifically do not mean chopping barrels shorter than four inches.
    It’s so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don’t say it. Sam Levinson

    Check Hamilton Bowen. He has done many things on the Redhawks. I think he does lighten them. Beautiful work, fairly priced (expensive).
