    You didn't post what your friends ailment is, O, and I won't presume to ask.
    I'm sure everyone here is thinking of your friend and wishing him well. Stay positive, bud.

    Sorry for necroing this thread, but I didn't see the need to start a new thread for this..

    Last night I saw the coolest revolver ever.. The S&W 460 XVR


    It's supposedly the highest velocity revolver in the world..
    That's a Taurus 45 for size comparison..
    And that's my buddy doing the pose

    So, my wife and I arrived home from Sunday lunch and some errands, and my neighbor gave my wife some flowers she was thinning out in her front yard. I vaccuumed the car's trunk fron the branches we had in it, went outside, and there was my wife and neighbors with a man lying on the ground. I went over to see what the matter was and they were giving him CPR!

    Probably the intense heat had something to do with it. I found out he'd biked quite a ways to look at my neighbor's truck for sale. He just fell down and his eyes rolled back.

    We were still pumping when the EMT's arrived. A couple hours later we heard he was, indeed, dead. I don't know how - probably a stroke. I don't even know him. I feel really bad. I just had to share this with someone who would care.

    - best wishes, Jazz.

    That's a gun i'd love to own just to own it. Screw practicality, i don't ever have to shoot the thing. Just having a beast like that would be so awesome. If you run out of ammo you can always use it as a hammer against the enemy.

    Well.. If you're going to pull the trigger on one, you better be prepared! I'm talking ear-plugs and muffs.. And the grip had best be white-knuckled.. With Locked elbows.. Or an ER visit for a busted nose may be in order..
    $35-$45 for 20.. Depending on the round.. Very Pricey.
    Still cool as heck.

    When I first saw it, I laughed.. It looks like something out of a cartoon or video game..
    The thing is Heavy! I'd guess 7-9lbs.. After handling it, that Taurus felt like a feather.. And that's a pretty big damn gun!

    Holy ****! Seriously?!
    You guys did what you could, Jazz. Don't beat yourself up.
    I, for one, appreciate the fact that you tried to do something.. Not everyone would have.
    You, and your family have my respect.

    That's one beast of a revolver! Bet that hurts like H*** to shoot!

    Speakin of guns- last Saturday was my B-day, and me and my family went to Cabelas to look around... I'd been really getting into shotguns, and we went to 3 different places to buy the one I wanted, but the prices were way too much for me... But I ended up, bringing a Remington 870 express home with me from cabelas, and the next day, me and my dad went to the gun club, to shoot skeet and trap with it. I shot 50rnds of 12gauge through it and not a single problem happened( except the following week my shoulder and arm was purple )
    It was awesome to shoot, and its a great 1st shotgun!

    I am not too familiar with this round, can you shoot other rounds out of it? I think you can shoot 45 LC and 44 Mag of of a 454 Casull. I shot a 500 Smith once and that thing was painful to shoot, so if this is more powerful. . . . .ouch!
