They are very few firearms I have no willingness to fire. This is 1, I will gladly watch other people fire it.
When my dad was in the last few years of his life, he added a scoped 45-70 barrel to his contender collection. I had sighted in or helped him sight in many firearms.
He asked me to sight it in using factory 405gr bullets. I refused, mainly because I didn't want him elk hunting with it. Thats why he got it. I told him I would take him to the range, but he would need to sight it in. He never did, we shot .22lrs rifles at the range. His vision was terrible and had weakened strength. I knew he could not hold up any handgun and hit the side of a barn much less hit any big game.

I have the Snake Slayer 4 in the standard 45/410 but rarely shoot it. Bought it to see what they were like mainly.

As others have said they are a little on the heavy side but nearly indestructible. When I have actually carried it, I put those PDX 410 shells in it. The ones with the 3 copper aspirin tablets over some shot. If it is something you think you would use, I guess I would recommend it. If I had it to do over again and intended to actually carry something with 45LC/410 capabilities, I would probably go with one of the revolvers from Taurus or Smith. Just my opinion.
That is a bit more than I care to even try to handle. My stubby 357 is bad enough. I can only imagine what this monster's felt recoil is like.
Add to the list of "Hold my beer and watch this." Saw a video of a guy shooting one, his hand was bloody from a cut in the web between thumb and index finger, after 1 shot.
Yep. Always the competition. I will have to check my ding-a-ling size if I can remember where I left it............My ding-a-ling is bigger than your ding-a-ling comes to mind.
I've considered tying a string around mine so I can find and reach it, but I don't want to strangle it.

Well, I guess it would be better than getting some hood rat's knife in your gut.
Hood rats don't use knives anymore. They just shoot you.

That's not the point. If you're armed with that gun, it's up to you to shoot first.
So, nobody dies by a knife anymore? Where did you get your information?
