A little over the top, but looks very cool.

I'll stick with my Ruger Alaskan 44 mag, thanks. That's plenty for me. (I'm getting old, just don't have the tolerance for explosions I used to have)

I saw a video of this in action yesterday. Handles 45LC, 454 Casull, and the .460 and looked like it was not too bad to shoot. I don't want to buy one, but would like to try it.

Not sure why a product release deserves space in a newspaper… It says it's marketed towards LEO. It also says it's for camping. I guess there is an active police camping program!

I agree, I wouldn't want to own it but would like to try it.

That is quite odd.

At least it's a good write up. Not like all the negativity about guns in newpapers these days.

Agreed. This thing would be fun to shoot, but if I owned one it would probably just be fed a steady diet of hot 45LC which kind of defeats the purpose for me.

Nice looking, but also looks like it weighs a ton.

The article says its marketed as a back-up gun, a back up gun for when your carying what, an anti tank rifle or something?
