What handgun can be had in 45 win mag?

[lonegunman]

I have always known of this round but never seen a gun chambered for it.

Any rifles chambered for it?

LAR Grizzly, 1911 style shoots the win mag.

I'm sure some lever rifle could be converted to handle it too.

I saw a guy shooting a LAR Grizzly at the range once... It's just such an impressive round. It just makes so much sense IMO. Stretch the .45ACP brass a bit and you have one. I wish more guns offered the chambering.

American Derringer Mdl. 1

Dan Wesson Mdl. 460 & 7460

Freedom Arms offers a .45 Win. Mag. cylinder for their .454 Casull revolvers.

Wildey (pistol and carbine)

Galena Automag IV

Derringer I think the manual of arms on that one goes something like 1. Toss to Mr. malcontented, disenfranchised, un-nurtured liberal poster-boy AKA the CROOK. 2. Dare him to try to shoot you. 3. run while he picks up the pieces of his arm.

I forgot all about the old AMT... I don't know if they're reliable though.

T/C contender barrels were available for it at one time.

I'd love to see Magnum Research offer the Desert Eagle in .45 Win. Mag.

There is the old Wildey Arms AutoMag in .45 WinMag. Though I don't think the gun has been produced in over ten years.

I've always wanted a .45 WinMag. I think the cartridge is a great idea, a true .45 Magnum. Too bad they don't chamber any current guns in that caliber. Winchester still makes loads in .45 WinMag, so factory ammo is still available. Talk about a reloader's dream...

My favorite gun shop sold a Wildey earlier this month...NIB.

What a chunk of steel!

Greetings-

To my knowlege Wildey is still in business but never made a carbine, IMO the best of breed (big bore auto pistols) is the now dcisccontinued LAR. As to a rifle hmm, was it Michigan Armament that converted M-1 carbines to .45 WM?? Roy

LAR

Still is in business, but they don't seem to make handguns.

Alaska Roy,

I saw the Wildey carbine on their website: www.wildeyguns.com

It's an adaptation of their pistol.

Nightcrawler-

Your're right! Over the years I've owned several of the LARs in several calibers, they're as accurate as a Colt Gold Cup and with magnum power levels. You can find them on the used market for around $1000.00 for the .45 WM or .44 Rem mag while the .50aes are somewhat higher. Even rarer is the long slide version..Roy

glockten - Thanks For the Link!

That brought back some memories, I had a Wildey some years ago but don't plan on another. Ya wouldn't want to creep up on that stock what with the massive bolt eh? Roy
