Revolving carbine powder burning hands is largely a myth and

with sensible cartridges just aint gonna happen. With a 500S&W, sure I can see it. 44-40, 44 Special, 357mag and others of the sort just ain't happening. How do I know? I have the only one Gary ever built, in 44-40 and see zero issue with it. While I didn't put my hand right over the gap like an idiot would only do anyways, my left wrist is just 2" away from the gap and I can just barely feel the blast at all...zero danger of the result you might get from a 500S&W etc. Its such a fine, beautiful little and fun shooting revolving carbine that is accurate as heck and light as a feather...I just wish Gary would reconsider building them. It has the bright chromex with a 16" barrel with standard SAA style fixed sights and I shoot 240gr cast at around 850fps if I remember right. I have to learn how to post pictures on here..its a real beauty.

Some odd ones that caught my eye - WB, 2020-04-01, 14:18
