fat guy + big gun = funny ****
BWUHAHAHAHAHA.....this was sent to me today. read first then watch.
Subject: 60 caliber pistol - read the text then watch the video
60 caliber pistol
"This video is basically a "show and tell" custom built on a Thompson
Encore (fancy version of the Thompson Contender). The Caliber 600 Nitro
Express. That's right... An elephant gun round in a handgun. The story
goes that the guy that built it is some kind of custom gun maker. He
built this as an exhibition piece. He takes it to the range with him
just to show it off, and the big guy that shot it (in the video) had
been bugging the builder to let him shoot it.
Now think about this.. Only until fairly recently (early-mid '80's) the
600 Nitro Express was hands down the biggest, nastiest, hardest hitting,
and heaviest recoiling weapon you could buy. It was designed for one
simple purpose.. to knock an elephant flat on his butt. It was really
built as anexhibition piece! for guys "compensating" This cartridge is
known for breaking collarbones, arms, shoulders of the shooter!
Think about this, in the gun world they use what is termed as a "recoil
index" to kind of give prospective buyers an idea of what a gun kicks
like.
A 30-06 gets a rating of a 1.0, which for many people is about the
limit of what they can shoot multiple rounds thru comfortably. A 243
is rated at like a ...4, a 270 was like a .8, etc.
The 600 Nitro Express is rated at a 9.4... 9.4 times more punishing
power than a 30-06.
Now watch the video.
