[Moonpie]

Does anyone have a revolver chambered in a.454, .460, .500 or other similar caliber? I want to try one out

I’ve a Ruger Blackhawk in 45Colt.
You can fire the hot stuff in it.
Want me to bring it?

Military arms channel's hand cannons video popped up on my feed in YT and I figured I could shoot one at the meet before I impulse buy one

Go to that ShootSmart in southern Dallas if you get the chance. They have the Eagle50 and a 500 magnum you can shoot.

A few rounds will get that out of your system REAL quick!

Reviewing the handgun list for Reunion here is what will be brought out so far:
10mm 1911
10mm D/A revolver
.45Colt Ruger Blackhawk Bisley
9mm 1911 Commander
9mm 1911 (Gov't size)
32acp auto
38 Super 1911
22lr Beretta M-92 clone
22lr D/A revolver
22lr Beretta 21A
22magnum D/A snubbie
357mag D/A revolver
327mag S/A revolver.
icky icky nasty bad juju 9mm Glock 17. I'm not going to want to soil myself touching it so somebody else will have to load mags for it.
357mag lever action carbine
I've decided not to bring any Blackpowder guns this reunion. Not going to be enough time to run them.

I do have a question: Range rules say NO MAGNUMS on the pistol range right?
Will calibers such as 327Mag, 22mag, 357mag, 10mm auto, or even +P rounds be allowed?

 

[Byrd666]

No Magnums on steel, IIRC, on paper is okay

I can bring my Fieldgrade. No Stakeout.

Correct. The range just to the right of the steel bay is magnum zone.

Heh. I can bring something small he will love.

You make for good drafting. Gas prices gone up

I have never tried and have not looked at the sear. I’ve had this for probably 20 years and it came to me as a used gun, so there’s a chance it may be capable.

I’ll try to find some time to pull the FCG and determine, or test it out.
