For years I have longed for a light, easily carried trail gun with about a four inch barrel, chambered in 30 carbine.

It would have a fairly flat trajectory, low recoil, and I think the vicious muzzle blast of the 30 carbine could be mediated by the use of pistol powders appropriate to the muzzle length.

Of course no body ever made anything of that nature. But the 327 mag is about as close as one can come to its ballistic twin.


People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
