Now here's something a bit unusual,a snubbie 45LC!

I just thought that this was more interesting than your run of the mill 19 oz. snubbie:

    No doubt, but a ported pistol at 19 oz. is still a nice big bore carry gun, and no "custom" price either. If it's got a decent trigger pull, somebody should cotton to it.

    Neat looking gun but I question what you can get out of a 45 LC, two inch barrel using standard loads. This revolver might have more oomph with the 45ACP or 10mm.

    Not comparing my Thunder Five to this one, the Five weighs a lot more;
    but it will hold buckshot. It's cumbersome to carry, too - I carry it when I'm wearing a heavy belt and long shirt. I keep it cross loaded with .45 LC and .410 buckshot, and if those rounds won't stop them I could always throw the thing at them and knock 'em silly!

    It sure looks good. But i thought the idea of a snubbie was concealed carry. That great big hammer spur is just waiting to catch on clothing or in a hand bag and make the owner fumble getting the darn thing on target.

    Maybe you could get a pocket hammer for it -- either that or have a gunsmith shorten that tang a bit. I did that once on a Star PD. As long as you don't make the hammer too light to ignite the primer, you're okay.
