That revolver would be a hell of a companion piece to this little shotgun!

Punt gun (shotgun) video - best angle - YouTube
That would make an excellent home defense shotgun

It should be able to down anything that walks ALASKA, if you have a buddy to help you carry it
Negative. Even a harmless jack rabbit is safe. Swinging that brute around to get on target isn't going to happen. Plain and simple, it's a mid life crisis (or equivalent mental issue) that someone fabricated.

The revolver has some amazing ballistic specifications with its caliber of 1.1in (28mm) and each of the massive ball shot weighing 2,056grn (4.7 oz)
Hmmm,
1,000 grains = 1 oz
Therefore,
2,056 grains = 2.056 oz
4.7 oz = 4,700 grains
So which is it?


I wish authors of websites would do all the research before blindly posting up incorrect information. During extensive research and cross referencing I have discovered so much disinformation, myth and total crap purported as truth on the net that it defies belief.

Actually, there are 7000 grains in one pound of powder. 1 ounce = 437.5 grains.

Yup....and that's Avoirdupois ounces, not apothecary or Sterling, where the gr/oz conversions are different still. I presume our powder charge and bullet-weight measurements are in the most commonly used system, which is Av.

That's why it's safer for medical people to think in metric terms. A grain is NOT a milli-ounce.
