To ClemBert,
Was wondering about the area behind the Kriss Converter looks like it was machined out (compared to the stock Uberti) to allow proper loading of the cartridge.
Was this done by a gunsmith? Looking at the Kriss site it also shows the relief machining to load the cartridge but the...
OK, this is just about the most Stupid AWESOME thing I've seen in a while.
An I do mean that in a good way :D
Thank you so much for sharing.
However, my incoming Walker might not be so happy with my new found information though ;)
Yeap, Kingpin008 is correct.
I'm a Canuk :) So once a pistol always a pistol in the eyes of the Gov't here.
That said, I can only visit a range to shoot the BOOM Stick and can't go hunting or out to the farm for practise.
We have a lot of funny laws here, for example unless you owned a...
Thanks for the words of encouragement FF in IL
I already enjoy shooting off a 5" 44MAG with hot loads and really got a kick (no pun intended) out of full house loads in a S&W 460V. Like standing in a blast zone :D
The 460V got traded for a Magnum Research 6" BFR in 45-70 and let me tell you...
Ouch Stick might very well be it's name after I fire it.
I like big boomers a lot and am wondering how this one will stack-up.
Have some hand-loading to do as the ammo costs would put me into the poor house if all I bought was the factory offerings.
Hello Gents,
Just got this all together today and wanted to share.
It started out as an T/C Pro Hunter (Encore) Pistol in 500 S&W with a 15" ported bull barrel. I added the Choate Folding stock and got a Leupold Compact M8 2.5X scope mounted up. She's just under 20" folded, over 29" extended...
Unfortunately she's just a range toy for now.
I'm a Canuk so any handgun hunting is a no-no :(
Not as much flash as I was expecting but the BOOM was pretty frick'n cool!
Will need to work on my reloads for it. I love H110 and 180gr 44MAG loads so will try and find something similar for the...
Hello Folks,
Picked up this beastie on trade last week. A BFR in 45-70
As some of you might have noticed by the picture it's a little shorter then normal, measures in at 6" versus the stock 7.5" or 10" barrels.
Hit the range Friday and broke her in ;) 5 rounds of 350gr factory loads...
Here in Canuk Land Norc 1911's are readily available and cheap to boot.
Got a plain jane 1911A1 that was lightly worked over by a decent smith. It sits in the safe as my go to gun. Plenty accurate and not ultra tight (IMHO a 1911 should be able to function dirty and feed/fire what ever you...
This should help :)

Is the magazine in? I know there is a interlock on some if not all the woodsman.
Additionally, for the Woodsman it is not a good idea to dry fire them. Use a snap cap or spent shell to dry fire.
Hope that helps.
Alas, we can not own such pretty snubbies in Canada and that is a GREAT looking snub-nose. I was meaning the regular long barrelled SRH just don't have the flowing lines of the S&W or even the Redhawk. Bowen makes a wonderful SRH/RH Hybrid :D
I'd get the SRH just on the fact you can shoot 454 also. While the SRH won't win any beauty contests it is hell for strong and the 454 version is even stronger than the 44MAG version.
Just my 0.02
Hello Vacek,
Did you get a receipt from Paypal? If so you have some recourse for a refund if ORH has gone belly-up. I think it maybe computer related, try and phone the owner. Good luck and hope all works out.
I've got a Norc 1911A1, in Canada they are a worst kept secret for a great 1911 at a bargain basement price.
They are usually a little rough around the edges but reliable as heck. With a little tweaking (common 1911 work), they get even better.
Not the prettiest but it's what sits inside the...
Tough to beat a Ruger Super Blackhawk for the price.
If you can find a Llama Super Comanche in 44MAG that would also rate.
Before others chime in, yes I've got one and it's pretty awesome. Got it for cheap and chopped it to under 5" for only a little more.
