Two Important Updates...
...to my earlier post on guns.
1) Theo has the video on the Pfeifer-Zeliska .600 nitro Magnum revolver (H/T: Captain Heinrichs).
2) Friend and commenter Mojo sends the following (but, dude, can you get a concealed carry permit?)
Mojo, check out the video at Theo's place. I noticed that the guy loaded only one round before firing, certainly for safety reasons, given the obvious recoil.
Funny, my friend Billy never told me he was Mojo...but I sent him a link to this picture, & just got a reply that bragged on his new deer rifle...maybe Mojo just had a picture of my friend Billy?
Well, Mojo, my friend Billy is a good man, more than qualifies for the redneck label & would be PROUD to have such a picture taken (or stolen) of him. He sent me a picture of his son's first deer last season...brought a tear to my eye.
That .600 revolver is awesome, but using it on anything but a charging rhino at point blank range would be vast overkill.
ReplyDeleteJeff: I agree. It's more of a novelty item, and, as a commenter said over at Theo's, you'd probably be better off with a shotgun.
ReplyDeleteWasn't the .600 Nitro Express developed for an Elephant gun?
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't fire that thing with your hand.
SB: beendun
Smartie.

ReplyDeleteMojo, you in Indiana???
KC: Mojo sent me the image, but I don't think it's actually a picture of him.
ReplyDeleteWord is that Barrett has upgraded its .50 cal to 25mm... anybody else heard that?
ReplyDeleteOK, I mean if you fired one of those EVERYBODY else would have heard it, but has anybody heard about it...?
TW: Faidist: The unholy worship of the owner of Harrods...
Pic shamelessly stolen from a "rednecks" site. Not me.
ReplyDeleteI'm just jealous, is all.
