The merchants would strap three or four punt guns to a boat and get full stock of duck or any useable waterfowl for sale the next day.

The Chiappa Rhino revolver.

I would like to shoot one of these before I determine if its really worth having the barrel fire from the bottom cylinder or is it just over complicating the simplicity of the gun. It is supposed to reduce muzzle jump and force most of the recoil back instead of up. But I'm not sold on that idea until I shoot one and see for myself.

Lol they are beasts!!!

The only problem is you either make one yourself which yes is completely legal because it is a black powder firearm or you can purchase one for $8,000-$25,000.

I have had thoughts about making a tactical lever action .45/70 for lion defense and it is looking better and better every time I see what you can do just to a simple lever action 30/30

The only thing I would want to add is a flashlight/laser combo with a strobe since lions, tigers, panthers, cheetah's, etc... Have very sensitive eyes to drastic light changes and a strobe at night would disorient the big kitty and give me more of an opportunity to put it down right instead of lobbing rounds in hopes of a Kill shot.

Same as using metal buttplates on rifles so when you run out off ammo, you got a sledge hammer...
