I stumbled across this online a couple of weeks ago.
Apparently, this gentleman made a double barrel .45-70 Howda pistol off of a Sauer shotgun frame.

Sheer awesomeness! ;D

My wrist hurts just LOOKING at it!!! ;D

Did you see the size of that pop-knot on the guy's head?
Hurt just to look at that too......
;D ;D

This is one of those guns... you know, the type where you hand it to the bad guy and ask him to shoot you with it. It will hurt less that way ;D
-
Gives a whole new meaning to " don't make me use this ". >:(

I would love to have one...
I couldn't think of a better gun to hunt wild boar with!

they make revolers in 45-70. not to mention that the 500 s&w for all pratical purposes is a 45-70 in preforamance.

Yes, but the romance of a double-barreled anything is undeniable...

TOOOOOOOOOOO cool!
Got to shoot one of the original 10-bore Howdahs at the Vintagers' shoot a few weeks back...I want one really really bad...had a 10-inch Contender in 45/70 that J.D. Jones made up for me once. He included some of his 500-grain loads with the gun. When I touched one off it was like holding an exploding M-80....busted the knuckles across my week hand...when I called him and asked about the loads, he said something to the effect that they were perfect for one shot stops on garbage trucks.

Pansies. Whenever "big handgun" comes up, always say ZELISKA in 600 Nitro Express http://www.pfeifer-waffen.at/cms/html/index.php?module=htmlpages&func=display&pid=32&newlang=eng (http://www.pfeifer-waffen.at/cms/html/index.php?module=htmlpages&func=display&pid=32&newlang=eng).
I love what they say:
Due to the weight of the gun, shooting the Zeliska is no problem for a skilled marksman. There won’t be any permanent damage inflicted to your wrist.
I do admire the attitude of the Howdah maker - "they don't make what I want so I will make one".

a double-ender, kills at one end maims at the other.

Just because you CAN do it, doesn't mean you SHOULD do it.
Kinda like dropping a worked small block 350 into a Ford Pinto. At the end of the day, it's still a Pinto. ;D

Speaking of......
I don't know about self-defense but I could give that to the wife when she wants to kill me. That way the cops will know who did it. She'll be laying on the floor next to me! :o

Nice, but I want a 12 gauge with fully rifled barrels.
