Buckshot Bob Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 It’s from Brownells FB page 28mm just under 100lbs
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 It depends on how big that guy is that is holding it.
Three Foot Johnson Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 28mm is over an inch, so no, but I'd like to see somebody do it... with paper targets... might make quite a dent in steel.

Nate Kiowa Jones #6765 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 It's legal, but ya gotta shoot it one handed.
PaleWolf Brunelle, #2495L Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 NO. Quote Revolver Calibers - Must be centerfire calibers of at least .32 caliber and no larger than .45 caliber or percussion calibers of at least .36 caliber and no larger than .45 caliber. SHB p.37
Not Dead Ed Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Even if it were legal, keeping the round’s velocity to under 1000 FPS probably means the round hits at less than 10 feet in front of the shooter leading to a SDQ. “BANG, ROLLLLLLLL, THUD” . second non PC thought, didn’t they shoot midgets from that thing at the circus in the old days?
Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Crossdraw or straight drop? Imis
The Rainmaker, SASS #11631 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 What size caps ya use on that thing? OMG! And over 1 inch balls! About 8 oz of powder. Haha, talk about smoke and fire!
Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Might be big enough to hunt rats in Texas.
MBFields Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 If you show up at a match with that no one would challenge legality. Maybe have your own category " Super large extra big grandiose big grin on face category".

Goody, SASS #26190 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 30 minutes ago, John Kloehr said: Would a caliber conversion make it legal? That's it, convert to 4 gauge. From Google, "4 gauge or 4 bore firearms are nominally 1-inch caliber. Actual bore diameter varies by several hundredths of an inch in either direction, though technically 4 gauge should always be have a 1.052 inch (26.72 millimeter) bore diameter."
Injun Ryder, SASS #36201L Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 I knew I had seen a video of this gun being shot! It just took me a while to find it. https://www.alloutdoor.com/2017/01/09/watch-massive-revolver-set-new-world-record/

Branchwater Jack SASS #88854 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 How many hides would it take to make a holster for this thing?

Three Foot Johnson Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 If they make a second one, will it have a consecutive serial number, or will it be from a different block of numbers?
