50AE and 380 Kahr say what!

Saw this and thought it was cool to watch. Now I knew a guy that had one of these and he was a big bruiser at 240 Lbs and said he like it but he wore a wrist brace when shooting. I would never buy this BUT LOVE to shoot one at least once. Thought the gas system is interesting, my son had one in 357 many years ago and boy that made my 1911 look like a pocket gun. But needed money and sold it, but very soft for a 357 shooter. Did shoot a guys Lcr 357 at the range one day and got to say that thing hurt, way to small for the 357 round and I did shoot all 5 rounds thru it but gave it right back to him. Way to light for the 357 for my taste

I shot an LCR with 38's. I don't recall if I shot the 5, think I did but I gave it back. It was a rental. My son I think finished the box but I had no use for it.

I've long had a hankering to shoot various huge bore handguns. I too don't really need to own one...just shoot 'em a couple times. But none of my shooting buddies are stepping up to the plate. I guess they're waiting on me. ;)

I have the LCR in 9mm is a handfull too for just a 9mm. Its on the .357 frame and the bore axis is so high its a wrist wrencher. There's something wierd with the trigger too. As big as my fingers are after about 50 rounds the trigger has ripped the skin off my trigger finger. Have to wear a bandaid when shooting it. But the trigger is NICE!

Got to watch the ammo you shoot too cause the last round will jump the crimp before you get to it if you shoot cheap ammo.

Wow, not me!

Shot the 50, but my 340pd with 158 gr. Nyclad .357's rivals the recoil and has three times the hand sting.

Hickok sure seems to shoot it without any issue and accurate too.

It's a big ole beast so I'm sure that soaks up some of the recoil.

I'd love to have one myself, although I'm clueless what role it would play. I remember clearly when they first came out in 357. I went to an NRA show and they were brand new. The guy at the booth tore that bad boy all the way down for me. It was interesting.

What a marketing genius to come out in 357 first too. Then 44. Brilliant. Everybody with a 357 had to buy a 44, after that slowed down they offered a kit to make the 357 a 44.
