Here's my other "shooter..."
It's a .44 caliber "screw barrel" boot pistol that uses 12 grains of black powder.
At 20 feet, it will put a ball through a sheet of 3/4" plywood. But that's assuming that you can hit the sheet of plywood at 20 feet (notice the lack of front and rear sights.) The effective range of this pistol is about five feet which is roughly the distance across a poker table.
I would hate to be caught with an ace up my sleeve and be on the receiving end of this piece....
