Remember:That's not a knife...THIS is a knife! Ck this out

Post by knife7knut »

A friend of mine sent me the link to this video. If some is good;more is better;than the biggest must be the best! Right? You be the judge.BTW I don't think I'll be buying one anytime soon;my bones are too fragile.

EDIT:Just a note when you go to view it ,it stops at about 12 seconds into the video and a note pops up asking if you want to share it.Ignore it and about 30 seconds later it will start again.stopped a couple times on me.Watch it all the way through

Didn't stop on me. ::shrug::

Reminds me of shooting a S&W .500 Magnum. Can't get through the first cylinder before the fun goes out of it. Sometimes big is just too big.

I hear ya Jerry.I've owned two really big handguns in my life and sold both of them for the same reason:WAY too much gun.
The first was a S&W Model 29 with a 10 5/8ths inch barrel.Only made for a couple years in the 1980's.Had 4 way adjustable sights that were set for 200 yards.Bought it from a guy who hunted dahl sheep with it in Colorado.Had to carry it in a case as no holster would hold it comfortably.At nearly 17 inches long and about 6 lbs. loaded it was a bear.Fired three rounds out of it with wooden grips(Pachmayrs would have helped)and put it away.Sold it shortly thereafter.
As if I didn't learn from the first time.my next fiasco was a Phelps SA chambered for .45-70 rounds.Originally had a 12 inch barrel;it had been cut down to 8 1/2 inches to make it easier to carry.Still weighed 6 lbs.Might have been easier to carry but not to shoot. I also got three rounds out of this before putting it away.Sold that one too.
I'll stick with my Detonics Mk1 .45.
