Yeah, but it is still cool.


No doubt. That thing is a conversation piece for sure, and I bet it is a lot of fun at the range.

This is one of the cooler pics from those links.....4 firing pins:







*I would actually hate to take it to a public range. It would be an hour and a half every time just dealing with all the gun guys coming over wanting to take a turn at fondling it and asking questions about it!  :)

Hey Guys!

Kid just sent me the link here, that holster turned out AWESOME! Good molding Kid!

-This is a veg tan leather, molds nicely. Ask Kid, he did the molding, I did the sewing!
-Normally I just make 1911 holsters, but in this case I sent kid the holster blank and had him do some tracing on it. He did the hard work!

That's about as custom as it gets! There's nothing like having an in-house holster maker!

With the weight of that gun, does it have some sort of firing pin safety to stop an inertia strike?

No firing pin safety that I'm aware of. I have never dropped it and I hope to never do so.

The potential for four barrels of .357 Magnum going off at the same time, if dropped, makes handling it an exercise in caution.

Andy is far too modest. I simply followed his very detailed instructions for moulding (I didn't have a clue). Make no mistake, this is an Andy original, that I'll always be very proud to own.

I think that is a FINE LOOKING gun (and a fine looking holster too.). Suggesting that for ugliest... That don't even make the first draft for ugly. I'd like to have one myself. But I wonder, since they've been discontinued for so long, can you actually find parts for the thing if needed?

There was a.22 lr version of the COP too. I wish I had both calibers.

Very nice holster.
