The answer to that is one post 72 which is no, he doesn't.


Does anyone want to volunteer to tell him there isn't such a thing as a Long Colt? LOL.

Are you going to the shoot at New Braunfels? I'm thinking about bringing my semi-auto-revolver.

LMAO..........No..........unless yer babysitting the kids and reloading and double a pretty much 5 or 6 grain standard load of Unique from Aliant Powder .........that hot load will eaker ya fer sure in a 45 ACP fired from a 1911 or a clone. 10 grains in a 45 colt maybe for a Ruger Blackhawk or a Thompson Contender maybe......hot at about 1100 FPS. A hunting load to work up carefully IMO and experience.

Stay Safe !
