Saw this "Open Carry" spoof - then saw one of the gats....

#1 Post by saddler »

Ignore the long guns - have a look at his right hip & the revolver.

Other comments on this said it is a S&W Custom Shop .460, with an 18" barrel - so the OAL must be getting upwards of 24" or not far off it??

FBUK Group Buy anyone?? cheers

ETA:
Model 460XVR

14" barrel, 21.5" OAL - also available in 12" barrel model with an 18" OAL

Bonus points if you can name the chap with all the ordnance.

When I saw the clip I knew it was Jerry Miculek straight away. He's done a couple of parody videos in the past, I recall one of them was a "tactical" high capacity staple gun which was pretty funny.

There was a chap at one of the clubs I shoot with who had a revolver with no coat hanger, the barrel was long enough. It did look a bit odd, known as the "joker" gun from a Batman film where the Joker produces an improbably long revolver. Don't think it was easy to shoot though.
Careful now/that sort of thing

Let me guess - a Single Action "Colt Buntline" type? Very common as they have a 24" barrel, so when supplied smooth-bored are classed as a shotgun.
I wonder how a "Buntline" would compare to the S&W 460?

(The movie gun was a S&W 15 with 21" barrel - doubt there are any/many in the UK)

on most frames the barrel needs to be 19 and 1/4" long to satisfy the 24" rule

that SRH had 21" barrel,

yes it was a handful and before I really started to lose my grip etc I could shoot it very well

In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

No wonder all those chip shops took out a restraining order...with her paddling around the vats barefoot in her handknitted bikini.

Ya can drag a land-whale out of Harry Ramsden's (with the aid of a Greenpeace tractor & some chains) but ya cannot make it eat salad.
