My birthday was on Saturday and on Friday, one of my sons asked me to go by the gunstore I do business with and pick up some ammunition for him. Whe I arrived the owner instead stuck the federal papers for buying a gun in front of me and said, "Just fill them out and don't ask questions". I did and then my family came from the back to see me open a nicely wrapped box with this in it. A Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan in .44mag.

I found the holster in a used holster box there and paid a whopping $5 for it. Fits just fine for field carry.

Actually, this was more from my sons than my wife. I have two Redhawks in .41mag, that they both love to shoot, and I have been talking about cutting one of them down to a 4" carry length. I had made mention that I liked the new Alaskan and it would make a great field carry gun so they bought it in hopes that I would leave the Redhawks alone. I think they are expecting them to be willed to them when I go to the great gunrange in the sky...... :lol:
