More Howdah eye-candy

[Jumpshot]

The other two showed up at my door yesterday, so now I have the set of three that I wanted. They're all 20-gauge smoothbores. The other two will be Christmas presents for my boys (when they're big enough to hold them).

And a special note for jbg ( :grin: ), I'm expecting my order from ToW with some supplies I need this week, so I'll probably get out to the range next week.

IF YOU DON'T ADOPT ME, I WILL HATE YOU FOR LIKE, FOREVER!

That's obscene!
You sure it's legal to own that many?
If not, you can send one to me. I'll keep it exercised so it will be ready for the boy when he is big enough.
I'll keep it well fed and bathed.

I'd sure like to see the look on a burgler's face when you pointed two of them at him, with the other stuck in your belt!

Those are nice looking guns.

I'm not familiar with these at all, but I do have a question. I noticed the fancy little deal on the end of the butt. Is that just decorative, or is there some specific reason for the way that is shaped?

Very, Very Nice! Another plus is you could easily keep the angry hoard from the door with that setup. :surrender:

The grip cap is decorative, although it's solid steel and someone suggested it's for konking the lion on the head if the first two shots don't do the trick. There are some close-ups of the grip cap in this thread...

I posted these pictures on another forum and someone there asked me to adopt him, too.
Sorry, but my kids keep me busy enough. :grin:

No. Lotsa liberals, though.

Anyone know if they're legal in CA? If so, I'll have to get one or twenty.

The size and weight is a bit of a problem...

 

[aragornelessar86]

yeah, 11.5 inches long and 4.5 lbs is a bit much for me. :grin:

The barrel is 11 1/4"; overall length is 18 1/2".

Wasn't too much for this young lady. I think you will be able to handle it :wink:

Here I loaded the .50/.50 with 90grs FFFg Wano(I sure don't suggest that you do it) for test purposes. Felt like a slow 44 Magnum. Still pretty pleasant.

I may never get my credit card down to a respectable sum! :cursing:

Too big for concealed carry, for sure: but packs more intimidation and punch than the little KelTec. :grin:
