The Alaskan submodel delivers the Super Redhawk’s robust construction in a compact 2.5-inch package, chambered in .44 Rem Magnum and also compatible with .44 Special. The triple-locking cylinder, transfer-bar safety, and full-length ejector-rod shroud reflect Ruger’s heavy-duty design choices tailored to this configuration.
Sight regulation and durability are supported by an adjustable rear sight and a ramped front sight retained by a screw. The exposed hammer spur provides deliberate single-action capability in addition to smooth double-action operation. The rubber finger-groove monogrip promotes a secure hold.
The cold hammer-forged stainless-steel barrel uses six-groove rifling with a 1:20 RH twist. The Alaskan’s topstrap is intentionally left without scope-ring scallops, and the six-shot cylinder is fluted. Overall length is 7.62 inches with an unloaded weight of 45 oz, finished throughout in satin stainless.
Factory identification is clear: the barrel is marked "RUGER SUPER REDHAWK ALASKAN" and "44 MAGNUM." This example is the 5303 (catalog code KSRH-2) made in the USA in 2023, with a 530- serial prefix consistent with Alaskan-series Super Redhawks.
