Andy -

Excellent! I just bookmarked it to read later. I did watch the video already (what can I say; like most men, I am visually oriented! :wink:).

I have a question. What's a "Smooth & Wesson"? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Looks like a handful, but a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing!!! :D

Nice video and review, thanks, I have always wanted to try a 460, really want the 8 inch version to hunt elk with. The recoil didn't look to bad.

Tutt: Very nice review, but if you're going to have a future with Gunblast, you need to get you a beard, a belly and an accent!

Tutt,
Good report. Cute 'lil pistola. Love those banana colored grips. I know how it is to fire a S&W 460, and for a multi purpose gun I think they are pretty close to perfect.

Here's my report on the one I shot.

Not as good a report as yours, but I had only a short time at the range to shoot it.

Good job, CT.......I traded my BFR for that 1895/.405 and while my 629PP is just fine, I find myself wanting a bigger boomer. I was thinking .500 S&W, but perhaps the .460 is mo betta :idea:

YK, that was a true, authentic "blooper" but I decided I liked it and will offer it to S&W to use in their ad campaigns!

Heck no, Ed. Nothing's any different. This place is still my home and you guys are my friends.
Tutt: Very nice review, but if you're going to have a future with Gunblast, you need to get you a beard, a belly and an accent! :D
That was simply hysterical!

Joe, I didn't realize we have the 460 in common. They are nice revolvers to be sure.

Thanks everyone for the kind words! I'm hoping to do more there in the near future with some projects that will be coming to conclusion in the next 4 months but we shall see what happens.

Only that the owner was afraid to shoot the 460 ammo so he let me be the guinea pig. Truthfully it is the only one of the big X Frame Smiths I'd be interested in owning.

Joe, I just read your article on the 460 and it is far more entertaining then mine! You guys need to read it as well, it is very funny. Keep it up, Joe! -Tutt

Tutt,
Thanks for the review. When I write something I try to convey the fun I had as much as possible.
Maybe some day I'll get one of those things for myself. I've got an evil temptation to see how much black powder one of those 460 cases can hold. That would be blast and half :mrgreen:

About time! :D I have been waiting to read your review all winter. I book marked it so I can read it later this evening.

Dude just got done reading your article. I like very well writen. :D
Tutt and I had talked several times about this project on the phone over the last couple months but he swore me to silence. Good job man.
