Yow!

Hey, Pegleg - Jaybet just solved your 'strapping a holster to the peg leg' problem.  Use this to walk on instead of the prosthetic, you won't need the holster.

Not the ugliest, but - damn! - .600 Nitro?

I do have some, um, well, um, er, squirrels, yeah that's it, squirrels I need to take care of. A .600 nitro should work nicely for those.

It would hurt less if you handed it to the game your about too shoot and tell them to shoot you.

I thought it was illegal to have anything larger than .50 caliber in a handgun. Wasn't the the 13mm GyroJet was outlawed because it was a .51 caliber.

Iono.  Maybe BATF made an exception for the .600 Express after some anti-gun congressman pointed out they could thin the ranks of pistol owners. Death by recoil to the head.

Or maybe you need a special "liesaunz for that minkey".

Damn what a gun.
I could use that as you suggested and give a whole new meaning to the term 'Hog Leg'.  ;D

I'd just have to be careful when I sit down in my recliner so I don't blow the back wall out of the den.  ;)

It cries out to me..."feature me on SHOOTING GALLERY...feature me on SHOOTING GALLERY..."

And yeah, 50+ caliber takes special BATFE approval...Hamilton Bowen had to paper one of his big revolvers...

I guess you have to prove it's not Ant-Aircraft Artillery when it's over .50 cal. Still not sure how this one got approved.  ;D

I'll give her a hand. Two hands actually. I can do my human-bra impression. I lift and separate better than a wonder bra.
