Have you seen this World's Largest Revolver?
Am Shooting Journal ^ | 12/4/2017 | J Hines

Are you into big revolvers?, I’m not talking about your .357 Python or .44 Magnum. I’m talking really big, a Remington model 1859.

This was built by a man from Poland. His name is Ryszard Tobys from central Poland. He currently holds the Guinness World record for building the largest working revolver.

They say it took 2,500 hours to construct due to the parts being custom built by hand. This big a&* revolver holds six 136 gram bullets (4.8 ounces) shoots accurately up to 50 meters. Take a look at this world's largest revolver video here.

Should mount it on a swivel in the bed of his pickup.

That is interesting. Both are the same genre. Oh well to each his or her own.

Weird since she brings up strong female characters. Dorie Doreau doesn’t register.

Not practical for concealed carry.

After he mounts it in the bed of his pickup he will need a squad of 4 or 5 bikini clad females to keep things running smoothly.

METV had some episodes late on weekends, this summer. Should check schedule.

I wonder what he uses as a primer cap. The place for it looks scaled up, too.

I got a buddy who purchased a kit to make his Ruger 10/22 look like a Thompson, it’s still a plain old semi-auto 10/22 but looks cool as hell!
