That thing definitely has a "cool" factor. What's the practical value, though?

Reminds me of my 2nd Cadillac; it had a TV installed in the dashboard, and a dvd player. The only time I ever turned it on was to show other people the cool feature in my car. Other than that, never used it.

Practical value? Well, it's a fast way to break every bone in your hand without punching a brick wall, I guess.

It's pretty cool to look at, but I think I'd let some other fool fire it. And while it may look like a 1911, it ain't one. It's got about as much in common with a 1911 as I do with Barack Obama.

Would I buy one? Weeeell, Idunno......... how much? :whistle:

True, it's nothing more than a 12ga flare gun that vaguely resembles a 1911. Sort of.

I will say that firing that monstrosity would more'n likely bring a whole new dimension to the words "hammer bite".

Can't say it is any dumber than the assortment of .357/.44/.410/.45-70 derringers proudly advertised and sold...

However, load it with some fine shot in Augulia 1½" shells... and it would be the snake gun from hell!! :roll:

That ain't a bad idee.

But I think I'd as soon be carrying my Taurus Judge. More shots. Sometimes I shakes a bit right after I almost get snakebit, you know.

I don't know what to think about a 12 ga. handgun . My 3" mag. Judge .410 has quite a recoil and my Bond Arms Derringer .410 REALLY has alot of recoil. Can't imagine a 12 ga.
