No you don't! Just fire, and take his wallet! You probably won't even have to shoot him

I had a IMI desert eagle .50AE.. well let's say it packed some punch. But I got rid of it because I think I want to be proficient with the gun I use so training is necessary... and that's a bit too much $$$ for me with the .50AE prices. (But I'm still missing it everytime I hear and feel only my 9mm)

Just ordered 1000 rounds of 45 and 1000 rounds of 9 mm to get better with those two.
The big Five Oh is mainly a comversation piece. Anyone desiring to fire it must sign a waiver releasing the owner from any harm you know.

I did a little gingerly reading up on reloading the 50 S&W. Pretty much every recipe called for a brick of lead, a bucket of powder, and a flame thrower to get it started down the lane!

If we ever have a shootin' day out in these parts, I'll sign the waiver.

I've shot my dads 44 magnum, I imagine the kick from your's is a bit more.

I've shot my own 44 reloads that were very hot and they don't have anything on my 454 so I can imagine what this thing is going to kick like.

Check the link for pics now.

ya gotta go for the .50 cal rifle. effective range 2 miles. yes i said 2 miles. 671 to 750 grains of diplomacy. its alot of fun. the only problem is finding a place to shoot it. it's fairly accurate too.

Like I said earlyer if you said the said the .454 Casull has a lot of recoll what gun are you using?As to the waiver not a problem plus Ill throw in 20 bucks to defray the cost of shells.We can do it as a group as well but I will tell you this much Ill just use one hand.Am I trying to be macho no I only have 1 hand but I shoot large caliber as is I love the smoke and roar.I love the .50BMG rifle as well.Just call me sick I guess.

I figure it's about $12.50 to empty the five round cylinder.
Just got back from my sons place, went to buffing on it for about four hours. Looks real good now.
