The link above is attached to the gun I have listed on gunbroker.

I have owned this gun since it was new and have probably only fired 60-80 rounds through it. I am selling this gun because I have gotten into bow hunting more and am not going handgun hunting any more. Due to the fact that Im not handgun hunting anymore Im including the boyt soft case Leupold VX-III 2.5-8 power scope a set of iron sights extra frame screw scope rings and bases. Pictures included. PAYMENT MUST CLEAR BEFORE ITEM IS SHIPPED. FFL INFORMATION MUST BE SUPPLIED BY THE BUYER SO I CAN CALL THEM AND VERIFY WHERE IT IS BEING SHIPPED.

Looking for 1300 but will take reasonable offers from here have a total of 1900 in this gun with all the accessories included.

You are the king of hand gunners sir! Not sure I would ever be very good at hunting with a hand gun.

It actually doesn't kick as bad as you would think but it's probably the loudest gun I own.

@CAustin hog thumping is why I originally bought it and it does that quite well.

When I was in college in the mid70s a team shooter from the med school had a deposit on a handgun similar to this. I graduated before the gun went into production, so it's nice to see they finally got the problems of fitting a big cartridge in a handgun. the biggest handgun that I've hunted with is a M29 44mag w/ 2x Leupold scope. It was very handy to carry in a bandoleer holster, particularly because at the time I was driving the rest of the family (dad, son and a cousin or two) around to various stands and drop-offs. With the scope sight and a good sitting position shots on deer to 150 yards were very makeable. Good fortunes with the new-to-you gun. :<)

Looks like a monster. Very nice!

 

[thriller]

@PARA45 you should buy it

 

[PARA45]

LOL!!!!! The 44 Mag is about enough recoil for me.

 

[thriller]

I will consider any reasonable offer from AH members just let me know what your thinking if your interested.
