Dear /K/

I recently received a large amount of Cabela's gift cards as a bonus at my job. Yes, I am a lucky little shit. Yes, I despise Cabela's but I ain't gonna say no.

I have one of just about everything at this point. Honestly, just way too much. I love handguns and I am simply bored with most normal things. I also cast and/or handload everything.

What would you get (first) if you had the choice of only these 4 guns?

A. Stainless Deagle in .50 AE with muzzle brake. (Power, meme gun, funny as hell, can't hunt with it in PA, gas system hates non-jacketed bullets, non-IMI gun)

B. Ruger Super Blackhawk in .454 (More power, reliable, can hunt with it, probably indestructible, a bit fudlike, ouch that grip)

C. 4" S&W 500 Magnum (Even more power, reliable, awesome muzzle flash, awesome chest thump, massive recoil, wide array of loads, can hunt elephants, semi-meme gun)

D. Same as above but the 8 3/8 barrel. (Most power, high velicity, better at stabilizing heavier bullets, better sight radius, probably able to reach out farther with the sights, more controllable, heavy)

Thoughts? I like power and have plenty of big bore hand cannons. I am curious about what most people would choose here and why.
>>
>>30214185
Give me your address OP, I've got plenty of power and you'll have a big bore when I'm done with you.
>>
.460 S&W Mag
>>
>>30214237

I know this is the logical choice. I just hate logic.

Nice thing is that I already shoot and reload for .454.

.454

Desert Eagle.

S&W 500 are primarily built from 44mag sized internals, and are not built to last. I've read tons of stories of them shooting loose by 500 rounds. If I'm going to drop over 1k on a gun, I want to be able to give it to my son eventually.

I reallydont like the Bisley grip on the 454 Blackhawks. Super Blackhawks are my favorite gun in the world, and I've been shooting them for years. Every single person I've ever had shoot mine that complained about the recoil was no.ding it wrong. You hold them relatively loose, and let them roll back and up. The Bisley grips don't do that as well, they transfer the recoil straight back like double action revolvers. Why they went with that grip for limited run super big bore Blackhawks I will never understand.

The Deagle brand Deagle on the other hand is hilarious, and a great conversation piece. Plus with a scope and in .50 African Eliminator it's a perfectly suitable hunting handgun.

>>30214378

LOL.

I really love the look of the 4" but wonder about how much better the bigger gun actually shoots. I'd also probably buy a shoulder rig just for shits.
>>
>>30214265
You probably already know, but you can shoot a lot out of a 460, including 454
>>
>>30214265
Plus 45LC feels like 22lr coming out of such a compensated gun(weight, grip, porting).
>>
>>30214398
>I'd also probably buy a shoulder rig
Then you need two to even out the weight. Unless you want to carry 20 speed loaders on the other side and still walk lopsided.
>>
>>30214406
>>30214407

Yeah, I don't have anything in between the .454 and 500 so I thought it would be a good choice after all.

I also like the idea of shooting 45LC for general plinking between wrist surgeries. LOL.
>>
>>30214426

True that. I could always get two!

Not sure I could shoot both one handed, hahaha!

the VHS is a shoulder rig, but it only goes up to 4" in x frame. I had to get a custom rig for this 5" 460V.
I imagine the full 8" barrel would be harder to conceal, and might be uncomfortable when sitting down. with the full underlug it would be very front heavy when shooting too.

>>30214426

>>30214391

That 460 is sexy.

I wonder if these guns crack the wooden S&W grips. My 629 beat them up pretty good over the years but no cracks.
>>
>>30214462

Naw, I work for a company that manages and provides GIS data for the petroleum pipelines.

I've had no trouble. the X grip frame is the same as the round butt K frame by the way. the ones I got are the Heritage model by Eagle Grips.
>>
>>30214468

I gotta say, that is really sweet.

Why don't you have all of these already?

Shit man what state? I'm a GIS guy but recently got laid off and looking for work.
>>
>>30214535

PA
>>
>>30214185
I would go with the S&W 500 with 8" barrel.
>>
>>30214546
Bummer, that's a little far.
>>
>>30214185
Option B.

Just cause I want a .454
>>
>>30214548

This is what I wanted to hear so I thank you.

To be honest though, I just want everything now. Thanks!
>>
>>30214185
Might be able to hunt in PA with semi auto soon fampai
>>
>>30214560

Good luck though. If I did not have a house and family, I would move out west. I hear it is a gold mine right now.
>>
>>30214580

Hopefully. That is, if the fudds, hippies, game commission and our beloved governor doesn't get in the way.
>>
>>30214602
IIRC, the bill passed the state senate so let's hope we can hunt with semi autos soon
>>
>>30214635

Good to know. I almost forgot about it, I know it has been floated for awhile now.

I am getting tuned up for the great PA tradition of summer groundhog hunting. I have a 15" Encore pistol in .223 that I use. I mostly hunt in fields and the power lines that go through the SGL.

I would just love to smack one with an AR or my M1A though.
>>
>>30214185

Definitely the Deagle. If Hillary wins the election, I promise you these will be some of the very first guns to go. This is due to the controversially extreme power of the .50 AE caliber handgun bullet as well as the fact that, unlike every other gun on your list, the Deagle is a semi-automatic hand-cannon. Unlike with a revolver, you can just pop your pre-loaded backup mag (or 12) into this gun and keep shooting, making them overall much more useful for HD, large-game hunting, predator defense, and alien invasions. Actually, you could probably even take down a weaponized drone, or even a small UFO with one of these ridiculous weapons.

Here's the catch: If you aren't going to get it with the muzzle break, don't even think about it. As a matter of fact, I'd probably also send the barrel in to be custom ported. That's what my plan is when I get mine, but also bear in mind that it's still going to put a lot of strain on your wrist to shoot it for extended periods of time.
>>
>>30214548

This.

Ive been finger fucking them for 10 years and ive finally decided that will be my next gun. Now if my bass amp would just sell.....
>>
>>30214834

Incidentally, I'm also a PAfag. Is this thread only PAfags?
>>
>>30214185
I'd probably flip a coin to decide between the blackhawk and deagle, for the fun of them. That said the S&W 500 is probably the most practical choice, especially if you want to use it as something other than a range toy.
>>
>>30214237
My buddy has a Performance Center .460. It's a work of art. Surprisingly easy to handle and Fuck-your-shit-up powerful. It's an if-you-could-only-own-one-gun type of gun. OP says he has a buttload of guns, but you can't go wrong with the .460.

quick question, can .410 shells fit in the .45-70 cylinder?
>>
>>30216293
Fit probably function..... I think some of the lever guns can but no idea re revolver
>>
>>30216293

They fit perfectly. Pattern would be awful though.
>>
>>30218258
I'm sure it wouldn't be any worse than a taurus judge.
thank you very much for the reply, I think I found the next revolver on my list!
