It is an extremely accurate fast ...

This scenario might hold true in states like Maryland, DC, or New York...that you'd have to worry about reloaded ammo being used in self defense law cases.

You fellows never heard of a 46?

There's the 460 Rowland still around. It's mounted in a Colt or clone 1911 model type .45 acp pistol.

Greetings to all. Nice to be on a Texas forum for two reasons. 1. I've had very good dealings with Texans on .44 special S&W revolvers and the restoration by Texas gunsmiths of same. 2. Half of my relatives are from the Panhandle and southwest Texas. But but sadly most have passed on as I'm near...
