OUCH! And "John" was going to shoot that thing one-handed! They would have had to remove the pistol from his shooting glasses with a crowbar.

Well,

Someone was even mad enough to create a revolver for the .600 load:

And they claim that with this revolver you will have "no permanent injury to the wrist"!!! Ha! I wonder how "temporary" they expect the wrist injury to be. Rip off 5 rounds on that puppy and wrist injury would be the least of your worries.

I guess stopping a rhino in full charge seems like a neat idea, but knocking him back on his haunches a couple of feet seems like overkill.

Once had the chance to fire a 600 nitro holland & holland express. Had 6 rounds fired 2
did not wish to fire the other 4 . Can't beleive someone had the B---- to pull the trigger
on this one.

The trick to avoid injury seems to be to stick the offhand forefinger in the air to Heaven to implore divine aid in firing the pistol.
