    No sane person would own one unless they wanted a repetitive foresight piercing above their eye😆

    Yep

    I'm thinking plugs and muffs would be standard issue when operating the trigger.

    And an M2 A2 gun carriage to cart it around and sight it up😆

    If we could hunt with handguns I would get one or something similar in a heartbeat.

    You would be the most feared in revolver class at a match. No such thing as hard cover. Poppers would all need repair and papers would only need one shot😆

    No Hunting Allowed Ever! You hear.
    We're just not responsible enough

    You bet.
    Hard cover would be reduced to mere rubble,
    the Poppers would only be good for scrap metal and
    the Paper would be difficult to score or patch as it would be nothing but a smouldering pile of ash
    But shit it would be fun

    @stug

    Never been much of a trophy hunter.

    I mostly hunt because I can and because I like to know we're my food comes from and how it arrived on my plate.

    Besides my freezer isn't big enough for an Elephant.

    But my safe Is Big Enough for another Smith & Wesson

    Cheers

    How's a man supposed to hang onto that monster?
