Now here is something you don't see everyday!

That is a really great looking gun but, 11.1 pounds is a bit much. Doubt that there is much 'felt recoil' though.

Amazing craftsmanship!

I thought it was ugly as sin! Just not my cup of tea I guess. ps

WOW, heavy.....but if 12 .357 wont' do what you need doing at least yea got a .50 back up........some craftsmanship for sure!

 

[Hondo44]

Very interesting! A marvel of ingenuity.

I have a single shot 1500 magnum break top:

S&W Model 209-277 37 MM flare gun. I can hit the sky at any distance.

Mr Hower had Magnumitis? Cool gun! Maybe crew served?

Ranks right up there with the double barreled .45 Auto pistol, and the double barreled bolt action rifle!

I think it's a very clever bit of gunsmithing. Whether the style appeals to one or not is a personal matter.

JMHO

The first thing I thought of when I saw the picture was "LeMat". Mr. Hower is a real innovator! Thanks for posting that, very interesting.

ps I's shoot it.

Wow is a understatement.
