Both (Freak and the 1911s) are mechanically efficient

Watches and automatic guns. Nothing against revolvers, but just that the thinking behind the automation of the gun around the catridge (and the ballistics), particularly when the mechanism of the gun is extended to ARs, SMGs and GPMGs etc. and their functioning despite thousands of rounds. Better efficiency than motor vehicles, in some sense.

Easy to operate, absolutely. But 44 Magnum is a load.

I love the feeling of power, but I usually do 50 rounds in a session w/ this caliber. 357 Magnum, more manageable but you still get a great feeling. If you are learning, I recommend starting with very low power, like .22. Too many times I see someone try ...

Do you know, what the differences are between Callahan’s .44 Magnum and yours? Regards, George
Thanks Wojo

Just took a glance at the Smith & Wesson website and I noticed I’m an absolute nitwit when it comes to fire arms. I should do some read up to know at least the basics. Regards, George
As far as what they fire, nothing.

The Dirty Harry 44 is a factory blued 8 3/8" barrel. The "Magnum Hunter" in the photo w/ The Freak was a distributor exclusive made in the 90s. It is also an N-Frame, with a "round butt". Both are made by Smith & Wesson, not Springfield.
Thank you, Michael

Those revolvers are quite fascinating. As I wrote above, I know too little about them. Must do some reading to educate myself.
I love a good revolver.

Pistols and semi autos are much more popular, but I shoot these old Magnums very well. Plenty to research, good for you for looking into it

Great duo there!

Those grips look very... grippy ;-)
I have only 1 for now.

I am seriously considering a Turnbull blued 1911 with ivory grips. Always wanted one like that.

Aah yah!

Looking good there Tony. Who makes the 1911? I have an Ed Brown Commander that I quite enjoy.
44 rules! 👍

Geez, another favorite! I'll post more on this in Timeout at some point. One of our members founded the company in the UK and the products are simply outstanding. I have owned it and another MF piece for several years now. If only I could find more time t...
Great Freak 👍

Nice Smith & Wesson

I have a couple of .44 magnums.. If you really want some abuse step up to a .454 Casull, mine is a beast.
Great composition Michael

Beautifully designed objects that speak to each other in terms of style. I am fascinated with the design of the pistol. Amazing details.
Such a sick watch

I went to my AD today to check them out! I’ll post pics of what I got tomorrow and no not the freak!
