Too bad it's not legal.

Besides I would almost bet you would get more power out of a 500 S & W.

Just a thought ...

That thing is unreal!! It is probably more power than anyone really needs, unless you are hunting some species of T-REX or KingKong.

I feel bad, but thought the Encore 600 video was kind of funny. Me and my oldest son thought is was amazing but couldn't stop laughing at the same time.

Anyways, good post.

without permission of the ATF anything over 50 cal in a handgun is illegal, I believe it's classified as a destructive device. You know those gang bangers would be all over a 600 nitro handgun.

Thanks Rod, never new that. I guess I never needed to know because I new I would never want to own something like that. LOL

I would love to see a Gang Banger hold that at the correct one handed banger tilt and squeeze one off. LOL Priceless.

decapitation by firearm, sounds like a good way to get rid of the little freaks.

Hey rupe

I didn't know it for a long time either until I got to talking about that clip that shows a rather large fellow shooting what is supposed to be a 600 Nitro chambered in the Encore( - I know you've all seen it ... he puls the trigger and it flys backward out of his hands.) with some guys that build custom guns, from what they told me the guy that built that gun in in quite a buit of trouble with the ATF bunch.

I am going to go ahead and post on Roll Call 2 thread ...

Oh yeah, we would see all the gang bangers selling their 500 S&W's and Baretts to buy the 600 Nitro's, then theyd sag their pants to show "the man" their piece...LOL


I have more guns than I need, but not nearly as many as I want...

Talk about home protection stopping power...That is, if you could lift it to fire off a round...The muzzle blast and concussion would probably knock the shooter out of his gourd as well. I'd like to see someone fire one...From a distance that is.
