I gotta ask 45-70 handgun was it the cool factor that was involved in the purchase? That has to be just pure punishment to shoot. Ive shot a 475 linebaugh before out of a Freedom Arms revolver and it was all I wanted. I cant imagine pulling the trigger on that one.
Of course it was!!
I owned it for several years and then sold it to buy my Uberti/Winchester 1885 High Wall .45-70 and I shoot that much much better!
Now before I bought my range property I used to go to the local Army Post shooting range that they would open to the public on Sundays.
I brought the hand cannon along and the RO said yeah you can shoot it even though that caliber is on the no shoot list.
When I would fire one off it would definitely create some attention!
Sometime later somebody spoke to a higher ranking officer and my BFR got banned from the range!!
