Handgun Picture Thread

It’s one of the favorites I return to again and again. Just a hunk block brick of German!

Here is a picture that I have on hand - my S&W Governor. I liked the fit and finish better than the Judge. Also, one extra bullet doesn’t hurt. It also will shoot .45 ACP with moon clips, but why?

nice gun! I agree though, no reason to shoot .45 acp thru it (unless in desperation).

Is the Governor rated for .45 LC +P? If so those are some NASTY cartridges. I would carry that hand cannon. Haha. :cowboy_hat_face:

But to you all’s point .45 ACP, meh, what’s the point in that or the Judge? Unless you want better recoil control vs .45 LC +P?

According to Buffalo Bore, no +P ammo in the Governor. :frowning_face:

I am pretty sure that the Governor is NOT rated for .45 LC +P - would be nice, though.

OMG, the governor.

Can’t have that in CA. NO, NO, NO…

Buffalo Bore has some standard pressure .45 LC that has over 500 ft-lb of energy. That’s not bad. Need to shoot that in my SAA 1873 clone.

Buffalo Bore produces some great ammo.

Yes, you might just get that much energy out of your saa revolver. Fun!

Out of the Governor, the figure would drop some as the longer cylinder does not make up for the shorter barrel. You might see only 850 fps (still respectable), producing around 400 ft lbs.

Yup, benchmark gift to myself. Looking at a Marauder or a Costa. Grabbed a RIA 22tcm/9 2011 in the meantime. Haven’t shot it yet.
