He brought two rifles and a few handguns and a Colt Python (6" barrel) that he had recently purchased. It was a canon!!! I used two hands to grip it and the recoil almost knocked me on my ass. lmao It weighted a ton and man was that thing loud even with ear protection. Bejebus. I only fired a couple of rounds, waaaaaayyyy too much gun for me. I decided I needed my wrists to function with. It seemed huge for me for a handgun. It did have marvelous adjustable sights though. He also brought a S&W .44 mag with a barrel that I believe was 6 1/2 inches long. (he was into the bigger is better mode obviously. lol) Again, the roar of it was huge, especially since we were at a range out in the Inland Empire that is surrounded on three sides by some small mountain ranges. Again, way to much gun for me. I can only image that you could shoot through several walls in your home with it and still hit your neighbor's car parked in his driveway. lmao You could clearly see a large muzzle flash from it in broad daylight. Yikes!!!
I have only shot the damn thing once. it knocked the hat off of my head. the recoil is just undescribable. It knocked me on my ass. It hit me that hard and thats no joke. It took me a bit to recover. I came around and swore to Jesus I would never shoot A gun this big ever again.
If its listed at the Talk Gold ponzi and crime forum its a SCAM.
