THE ULTIMATE SELF-DEFENSE PISTOL
« on: October 30, 2008, 11:02:49 AM »
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

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

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

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...

Yep. That is how most of my romances end up, with me sporting a large knot on my head! :o
