What's faster than a reload?
A second gun. This has to be IDPA/USPSA legal, right?

Hell, the mag holds what, 6 rounds? Doesn't that qualify for BUG?

Good thing you have all those spares...how short do I need to cut one?
It was hilarious getting this text from the inbounding dealer
“The gun I opened to check serial numbers, but all the other parts (barrels/mags) are still wrapped like kilos of coke from the auction house.”
Yup that looks like yayo
Took forever to take off lol

Admit it: you've stood in front of the mirror already, dual-wielding both of them empty. Haven't you?
And, somewhere deep inside, you don't want the chrome one to sell. Do you?
In fact, you really, really, REALLY want to be the first kid on your block to actually go to the range two-handed. Don't you?
Anyone got some clever ideas on what I can use to store the extra barrels in?? I thought of a small gun sock but wondered if there’s something else I could use. Don’t really want to keep them wrapped in bubble wrap but don’t want them dinged up either.

Get a pistol rug. Add some elastic loops.
That's some really cool history documentation !
Ya I was surprised to see all of the paperwork. Pretty cool. I’m waiting to hear back from magnum research but I think the gun was made in the late 80sThat's some really cool history documentation !

Get a small gun case or something like this:
Or if you are not a b*tch, you would strap them to your leg. You never know when you need to change calibers in a gun fight.
If that 14" BBL is anything like my 12" 460 your going to quickly realize they are wicked muzzle heavy. Makes for difficult shooting offhand. I often shoot my 460 off a bag or a rest for much better consistency.

I was surprised it wasn’t that bad offhand. But it is easier to be accurate from a rest.
And holy f*** is it accurate. Didn’t take long to zero the scope at 25 yards. Then I put out my 8" steel at 60 yards and those rounds hit it real hard. No malfunctions in the 70 rounds I shot either. Though the slide stop is impossible to use for some reason. Only way I can lock open the slide is by having an empty mag in the gun.
Great shooting, I'll bet the fact the DE's have a large secure feeling squared grip probably allows a firmer, more secure grip. The grip on my 460 mag is curved revolver style , and kinda smallish as well. I like the large DE grip (I have the finger groove Hogue)
I have always wanted a 44mag one with the 14” barrel
FYI, don't cut your barrel. The X frames use "gain twist" rifling which is a progressive twist based on barrel length. If you cut shorter, your altering the overall twist rate.
I actually contacted S&W to perform a X frame barrel swap from my 12" to the 8-3/8", they said they could do it, about a 10 week wait and about $600 .
Why can’t we buy new ones again? How are these not under the target roster.
