Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns 44 Magnum pic and discussion thread.

Does it have to be a magnum? My latest acquisition, 2nd model hand ejector target. Built in 1932 or 33 and obviously carried a bit but well cared for. The bore and mechanics are pristine and the bore and throats are perfectly matched. The stocks are pre war Magnas, likely from a Registered Magnum as they are serial numbered to a gun that would have shipped approximately 1940. Front sight was a King white top post when I got it, but sadly it was too short and the gun shot 14" high at 15 yards with the rear bottomed out. I stashed the King away for posterity and milled out a Patridge on my lunch break. I haven't shot it a ton yet but it will see lots of cast bullets on top of Unique, Reddot, or Bullseye. Might even shoot a deer or pig with it.
