Are the green tips for liberals ???
Well Rock Island got back to me regarding the barrels:
“In regards to the two extra barrels: One is 44 magnum, with a 10 inch functional length (measured from muzzle to sealed breech. The other is unmarked, measures between .41 and .43 depending on where on the rifling you catch it, and has a functional length of 6 inches.”
Super pumped that I’m getting the 10 inch barrel as well! I’m not sure what to think about the 6 inch barrel but it sounds like it might be a 41 Magnum barrel??

Reminds me -
Friends heard the distinct sounds of mischief in the other room, so they called out to their son "what are you doing?"
..."nothing"
"What are you doing it with?"
..."a hammer"
They run into the room to find their 7 year old prying up the floorboards, nail by nail.

The actual topic of the eponymous chapter in "Please Don't Eat the Daisies".
Fake news. I wear a NES speedo.How did you know?
Folks, Broc likes to make fun but a confidential informant sent me a video of him on the beach in Brazil. Something about training to shoot his BFR in IDPA.

Which would be more expensive: the ammo to shoot said match, or the gas to get there and back?

Measured the muzzle end of the barrel on my DE and it is in that same range that Rock Island stated. So I think the 6" barrel is a 44 mag barrel. A complete barrel set
Not looking forward to the invoice
I want one of their .45, reviews seem to be great and they are under $1K.
Did I just type "great, .45 and under $1K" in the same sentence? ... yes I did.
I hope no one here gets a stroke reading that.
I could also load with small pistol primer 45 brass.
Finally picked it up today. WOW!!! I don’t believe this has ever been fired before. No fouling to speak of anywhere - including the chambers.
I’m blown away by the deep blue finish (mint btw!) even though I’m more of a SS or chrome guy
Almost too nice to shoot honestly but I’m a shooter not a collector so…
Came with all the vintage paperwork manual brochures etc. Mags don’t have any signs of use either. Just incredible. Now if someone will buy the other DE
