How about "The Prosecutor"?
Hmmm. I kinda like that, too!
Sounds like a good idea for durability and corrosion resistance. I know that SS will corrode with enough exposure to moisture, but what about the titanium? I've never owned a titanium gun before and am unfamiliar with it's oxidation potential.
I'm only gonna Cerakote the aluminum, and that's really for finish durability. Titanium, like aluminum, forms an oxide layer almost instantly. Unlike aluminum, however, it is impervious to nearly all elements, including salt water and most acids. 6Al-4V gr. 5 also has a tensile strength of 138,000 PSI in it's annealed state, and is very abrasion resistant. It truly is an incredible material, just that all those wonderful properties make it a pain to work with!
As for stainless, there certainly are grades which are highly resistant to corrosion, but guns are made from heat treatable 400 series alloys, which are ferritic and will rust just like carbon steels, albeit more slowly. Like stronger & harder grades of aluminum, the trade off is lower corrosion resistance.
Another thought. Are you going to have a custom holster made for it or make one yourself? This would make a dandy woods gun, and I'm picturing some sort of low ride tactical type of holster. Sort of like the ones that strap to your leg that Safariland makes. Actually I think a leather holster designed to do the same with a button strap would be really cool too. I actually have a design in mind like this that I want to get a custom leather guy to make for me. It's for my S&W Competitor, as no one seems to make a good leather holster for a revolver with that profile. Or even a low sitting scabbard that sits horizontally under a hiking pack, if you do any hiking that is.
I probably will make a holster, but I doubt I'll carry it much. It's not that heavy at 46.3 ounces, but at 16-1/2 inches long (4" longer than my 7.5" SRH .454), it's rather unwieldy.
But a gun from scratch? Pretty sure God didn't give me those skills because my head would burst.
You start simple, man! I may only have a couple years under my belt with legitimate machine tools, but I've been making guns with grinders, hacksaws and drill presses since I was 13. Got in quite a bit of trouble for one of em, too
But seriously, there are plans for guns like mini Jaco derringers that can be hammered out with pretty minimal tools and skills going in. Most of them certainly end up looking like home builds, but it's a starting point, not the pinnacle!
