Ruger Superhawk with an 8" barrel is a replica revolver ASG in 6 mm BB caliber. It is a fully licensed model based on the firearm version of the American company Ruger Sturm. The model is made entirely of metal, with only selected parts complemented by polymer elements. A distinctive feature of the revolver is loading via a clip with a capacity of 8 BBs. It is powered by a 12-gram CO2 cartridge placed inside the grip. The presented version comes in black.
The Ruger Superhawk is equipped with mechanical sighting devices, including a micrometer rear sight and a fixed front sight with a white dot to facilitate alignment. At the front of the frame there is a 22 mm Picatinny rail. It allows the installation of additional shooting accessories such as a laser target marker, flashlight, or training device.
The replica is powered by a 12-gram CO2 cartridge mounted in the grip. Compressed carbon dioxide propels the BBs at speeds of up to 630 FPS. A high-quality CO2 cartridge allows for approximately 60 consistent shots. The number of shots also depends on air temperature, shooting dynamics, and proper maintenance. Remember that a pierced CO2 cartridge can remain inside the replica for a maximum of 48 hours.
The revolver features a realistic loading system consisting of a swing-out cylinder and clips into which 6 mm BBs are inserted. After loading 8 BBs into the insert, place it into the cylinder, cock the hammer, and the revolver is ready to fire.
The model uses a single/double action (DA/SA) trigger mechanism characterized by a short trigger travel before the shot and relatively low trigger pull resistance. The main advantage of this solution is its simple design and the ability to fire precise shots without the risk of pulling off target. With the hammer down (DA mode), the trigger travel is longer and requires more force, but the shooter does not need to manually cock the hammer each time.
During transport or carrying, the trigger mechanism can be locked using an adjustable safety located on the left side of the frame.
