Guns, Bows, Shooting Sports, and Hunting New toy

Been wanting one of these for a while and finally got one. It is a replica 1847 Walker . 44 caliber blackpowder revolver. When it was produced it was the largest most powerful handgun of its time. This thing is huge and very heavy close to 5 pounds but, I like it. I took a picture with my Glock 22 . 40 caliber below it to show its size.

Impressive looking toy. Have you had a chance to shoot it yet?

Dave,



Not yet, I have no powder for it. I have powder for my rifle which is 2fg , the revolver takes 3fg which is a smaller grain than 2fg. Have to wait on UPS to deliver it since I can't find any real black powder close by.
