nah no safe queen for me , i wish i could afford a 500 , but the .44mag/.454 will do , the .45 is just useless past 75ft . the 44mag or .454 will still be well and acurate and do plenty of open field damage, of course i grab the .45 in the city, hydroslappers stop in the body and not three houses down. I would never buy a gun and leave it in the safe //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif i buy a gun like a tool , for a purpose.
No you won't. A 44 mag ultralight? GTFO! Look at real 44 mag hunting guns by Ruger and Frontier Arms. They are big and heavy for a reason. Without the weight to absorb the recoil all that energy will be transfered into your wrist. You won't be able to hit shit with it and the recoil will be more than just unpleasant, it will probably damage your hand and wrist after the first few shots. Certaninly not something your boy is going to want to fire.
That's why it will become a safequeen. You wont' enjoy shooting it.
For what you describe I would suggest a Ruger GP-100 .357 mag 6" or a Blackhawk in .357 or .44. Those you will enjoy shooting, and the .357 you can afford to shoot.
