Look, I'm not gonna lie, my P30/P2000 that I'm currently carrying is a bit heavy, and has me looking at either a CC9 or P30SK instead.
Due to the nature of the site, all information on there depends on the autist filling out the page.
Based on guesstimation and hand size, plus having owned a handful of doubles, the barrels look to be anywhere from 8 to 10 inches in length. Big gap but I also don't know John Wayne's glove size. Total length grip to tip I'd wager 18", 20" max, from the same guess of hand size.
In this case all it says is that it's a double barrel sawn off. However if the same prop house supplied El Dorado, Rio Lobo, and Rio Bravo it's almost for sure a colt model 1878 due to there being one of those in each of the other movies and looking roughly the same as the sawn off version.
Thanks
While they all had the same shotgun, identifying that specific one is probably going to be impossible unless someone knows that specific gun. While an actual Colt 1878 would have been worth the paperwork, there were countless trade brands and no-name imports even at the time.
I mean to say that an average man's hand when making a thumbs up is roughly 6-6 1/2" from bottom to tip of the thumb. That's how I got my measurement.
Well yeah any revolver of that age needs hand fitting for parts. I’ve just noticed that I’ve been able to do a fair amount of cross brand part replacements before so I was hoping someone had a master list of which ones were close enough to swap and which ones weren’t. I wish numarich had uniform scale in the book they put out.
that's because Slugs and shot weights are mostly the same. 1oz to 1 1/4 oz. so any differences in recoil will come from stock shape or differences in powder charges. sometimes you'll feel more recoil with birdshot if youre shooting at an odd angle like up into a tree or at a flying bird. The stock of the gun won't be perfectly tucked into the meat of your shoulder. I know sometiems when shooting squirrels at a near vertical angle the recoil of even a mild 1oz field/target load can hurt.
the info won't be found unless the film armorer recorded it. the gun can be any one of a thousand different makers. the back-action hammer gun was made in the tens of millions from the late 1860s until today.
Shield Arms does the S15 mags that makes it 15+1, I like the 4 I bought quite a lot and have a few K rounds through them. They also do a Z9 mag that makes the 43 a 9+1 which is pretty sick. I really really like my 48, more than my 19, and I wish there was a 34/48L slide version available
it was provided by Elite Mercantile, and had 11-7/8" barrels, 21-1/4" over all length. it was also used in "Johnny Yuma". it wasn't a Rossi Overland iirc, i'm not sure of the exact make/model but it might have been something from France since a lot of westerns used WW1 guns for cap and ball conversions and blank fire with .44 and .36 blank cartridges - that included Colt 1871 and -72's exported, various LeMat models, et c. most of the guns EM was moving at the time were leftovers being let go for cheap from WW1 as automatics were replacing manual actions for pistols and rifles all over the place. the barrel length was chosen by a 1ft dowel used with dummy shells to guide the cut while being long enough to still properly lock the forearm in place and keep the barrel together (the brazing wasn't the full length of the barrels, that was a higher end feature cheap double barrels tended to lack.
By all accounts, Holosun pistol dots are pretty solid. I've only got around 300 rounds (mostly 12-pellet 00 buck (lol), but also some slugs) through my A300 with a HE407C on it, but it's been fine so far.
My gun is too big to pocket-carry. I'd rather have a shootable gun in my waistband than an unshootable one in my pocket.
Fuck the Parliamentarian. Tyrant.
I knew a dude from AZ who had an obsession with carrying full-size pistols in OWB holsters. Specifically, he wouldn't rock any holsters other than Azula Gun Leather. Here comes the retarded part: he decided that the P320 was the hill he would die on. Cue the surprise when he turned out to be an asshole.
It'd be hilarious if this is the straw that forces the Senate to overrule the Parliamentarian. Unlike a lot of the other things she took out, the NFA stuff is undeniably tax-related and her removing it is proof that she's not actually applying the "Byrd Rule" (which is also totally meaningless unless the Senators choose to follow it; it's not a law).
Lop me in with God's Drunkest Driver on asking if you conceal carry OWB. I'd be curious about the technique. Unless you're wearing the Thugnificent tier dress length T shirt it does seem like it'd be hard to pull off. Although given your namesake perhaps you wear a trenchcoat year round? I do like the full size carry pistol as a concept though. "That's my insulin pump."
To be successful with OWB you want something with a shorter barrel and grip like a G19 sized gun. Also a holster that properly rotates the grip towards your body for maximum concealment. Obviously you need your belt high enough and a long enough shirt. Having a narrow waist with a broad chest is ideal for this position. Same applies to strongside IWB.
