Weird Sass Guns

[Three Foot Johnson]

Me & my 18" .45 Uberti's, gunfighter style. 

[Boomstick Bruce]

One of these days I will own a pair of reicshsrevolvers and shoot them in a match, duelist...

[H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619]

Okay, how's this for a weird battery?  I plan on using it at the first shoot I go to this year...

 

 

From top to bottom:

AWA Lighting .45 Colt

Chiappa 87 Mares Leg 2 Gauge

AWA Lightning Bolt .45 Colt.

Custom configured Big Iron, .45 Colt made from an Armi-San Marco Frame, Pietta 1860 grips and a cut down Rossi 92 barrel.

 

[Three Foot Johnson]

Weird, but half of 'em aren't legal for CAS.

I know it's a typo, but it made me laugh at the thought of someone shooting a 2 gauge the way you'd have to shoot that thing.

D'oh!   I can't believe I missed that.

I dont recall seeing anything stating that shotguns need to have a buttstock or that they need to be fired from the shoulder....  Let me go look again.

 

***just checked the handbook again, and didn't see anything preventing a cut off stock on a shotgun.***

 

I only see one "non sanctioned" firearm in the photo

[Three Foot Johnson]

The shotgun question was ruled on several years ago - May 19, 2014.

 

 

 

[Crazy Gun Barney, SASS #2428]

That should be added to the handbook...  The barrel length issue is clearly stated in the handbook, but the cutoff stock is not.

 

Glad it is not required to agree with the ROC, only to abide by its rulings....

[Three Foot Johnson]

It was clarification of an existing rule, not a new rule, but yes, it should be noted in the Shooter's Handbook.

I've used a Mossberg Shockwave in the off-season wintertime, "shoot whatcha brung" matches - It's a hoot! 

[Crazy Gun Barney, SASS #2428]

I imagine there are many local monthly matches that would allow them, if asked.

I have asked permission ahead of time and was allowed to use my coyote cap 93/97 at a local match (didn't care for it, not "cowboy" enough for me).

 

[H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619]

There are a lot of things that occasionally get used a local matches that are not allowed under the rules.   I've seen lots of different things used by others, and used a few myself.   Never even seen anything like that at any of the "big" matches, state, regional, etc, but at local shoots things are often more laid back.  Always best to check first and make sure nobody has a problem with it.

How about a self loading single shot shotgun?

That looks like a hoot.  Too bad about that the gun needs ejectors to work.  You have to admire the engineering to make it work, someone spent a lot of time and a lot of thought.

I thought ejector were legal on single shots.

You may be right, I'd have to check the SHB.

oh goody we haven't even started the shooting yet and we've got a WTC    LOL

[H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619]

Is it wrong that I want one?

 

Is it just me, or does it have a "steampunk" feel?

They are legal in single shots

[Three Foot Johnson]

You can only load two, of course.

[H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619]

Oh...  I just noticed that it's left handed.    Warden, did you make this?   Wanna sell it?

But wouldn't a "self loader" that ejects be a semi auto???

No because you still have to push the top snap lever and break it open and then close it with each shot.  Maybe closer to a pump shotgun.   But in any case,  it would be an illegal external mod. WTC? 

[H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619]

Would it be considered weird to shoot the two nickeled ones together at a main match?

Snubbie Walker?   Need pics of it and the Remington...

[Oddnews SASS# 24779]

I've always thought the single-action Nagant revolvers were a little weird. Reichs revolvers have already been mentioned. Personally, I'd like to get set up to do the revolvers and shotgun using pinfire -- but there aren't many pinfire single actions. It seems like all you can find are double-action.

[Cyrus Cassidy #45437]

I own an original Burnside carbine.  It only holds one round, but I'd love to shoot it in the frontier cartridge category someday
