This may be old news, but:
The NEW .825 G&S Online Express Magnum

44 magnum, two 825 magnums, and a 357 magnum

Anyone shot one yet? I've heard the recoil is pretty stout, but not unmanageable. I've been looking for a squirrel gun, and I think this will do the trick.

Do you think I need to go ahead and get me an 825 Magnum, or should I wait and have a 950 JDJ Contender or Encore made?

I hear the 825 is the best "medicine" for jackelope

Those 825s are quite wimpy. I use the .997 Rusty magnum instead. Its a single shot non-revolving ,liquid-cooled, overhead cam, 1-2.5 twist, magnaported, jet propelled, laser-sighted target gray, Bisley-gripped,CCW blockbuster. 9.99 at Walmart. Squirts water when your thirsty.

See guys, I'm planning a couple of hunts in a few years that I feel the 825 G&S would be perfect for. I'll start out with a southwestern varmint hunt. You know, for jackalope and chupacabra. Then I might head to the Pacific Northwest to see if I can place a tag a bigfoot. If Britain's gun laws weren't so strict, I'd head to Scotland and bag a Loch Ness monster, too. Oh, and I can't forget to see if I can find one of the numerous black panthers all the guys see on the way home from the bar and fraternity parties.

I think I'll hold out for the maximum, that magnum looks a bit wimpy.


Rod, too.

Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

Rusty, it may not be the prettiest revolver, but there are few others I'd want by my side if I encountered a T-Rex.
