.600 Nitro pistol! See the videos!
Not anything close to Lugers. but figured you guys really needed to see this! And I thought that a .50AE was brutal!

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: See http://www.pfeifer-waffen.at |

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.
