All I can think of is the movie Johnny Dangerously when Joe P says...


" Its and 88 Magnum....it shoots through schools"

Good luck finding that hand cannon!

yea, my dad has a regular contender, .44mag, the first time we took it out to shoot it, it flipped backwards out of his hand (... and he was holding it by the forgrip too) it was the funniest thing, i couldn't stop laughing. I've not seen that movie though.

encores are fun I have one in 308 and a rifle barrel in 45-70 literally a blast to shoot

If you can't find one I can order a new one for you $285 blue $308 stainless for the frame barrels start at $215 for a 480 ruger in 15" blue and go up from there

called vendor he had 45-70 and 480 in blue and 30-06 and 308 in stainless

yea my dad has one in a .44mag and i think him and i are going to start hunting with them instead of our rifles... his .44mag was a blast... literally!

I've been looking at gunbroker, but i think this one in a .308 stainless is what i might go with for $618 i was looking to get a used one though for about 500 flat. may not happen.
