Har har...couldn't own it in California any way unless S&W copied it.

Wow, that is a pretty interesting revolver. Too heavy to be practical...but extremely interesting nonetheless. Whomever made this monstrosity of a revolver sure has some mad skills, and an active imagination. Is that 12 gauge? Imagine that...a 12 gauge revolver.

"The revolver chambers five 2.75" 12 gauge cartridges."

It is a 12 gauge.

Wow.

Now that is funny, I don't care who you are!

Lee, you owe me a new keyboard. I shot coffee all over this one.

You sure thats a Taurus prototype?

It appears ugly enough to be a current production S&W.

 

[Stressfire]

Interesting premise, bet it would be more interesting to watch a shooter try to hold onto it while firing

Can anyone say "Front sight to the forehead?"

 

[Jim March]

ELEVEN POUNDS! No, I think if you're strong enough to hold it up in the first place you probably could control it .

As near as I can tell it's a single action, and there's probably a loading gate of some type on the other side. That ain't a swing-out cylinder I don't think.

Mad skills there. Holy crap. "Satan's Snubbie" .

Does anyone make a IWB concealed carry holster for it?

 

[alloy]

Hellboy has one.

 

[skidder]

When it goes back to Taurus for repairs and they don't fix it, who has to pay shipping?

 

[h518may]

hope he didnt carry on the hip, he probably has a permanent tilt to one side!! but then again, hes a scumbag drug dealer so who cares!!!

 

[Sarge]

It definitely needs some pearl grips.

 

[FM12]

What, no hole for the internal lock?

Somebody will get an eye put out with that thing!

 

[Watsonville]

Sign me up oh wait ill have to wait for smith and wesson to introduce the executioner

 

[armoredman]

Actually, that DOES have a use - gun port gun. No moving slide to catch on the top of the port to jam, much shorter than a regular shotgun, just have to worry about side "spit". Refinement by a real manufacturer would make an interesting armored trucking defensive weapon.

 

[warningshot]

Yea-Yea-Yea, everyone knows it ain't no good ifen' it don't say, Tatical.

 

[RsqVet]

needs a rail for a laser ....

Does clip draw make a grip for it???
