Thunder Five-Range report - The Firearms Forum

berto64 · 03-14-2007, 02:03 AM

My son & I took my new Thunder Five out too shoot.

WOW! The 410 rds are LOUD. 45 colts sounds like a popgun after shooting the 410s. Of course it only has a 2 1/2 inch barrel. Even with hearing protection it gets your attention.

The only thing that I have shot that is louder was my 454 Casull.

I forgot to mention one thing,,,, I Love it!

Ugliest gun I've ever seen, but the logic behind it is hard to argue with . . .

The guys that I was shooting skeet with recently got a kick out of me handing my O/U to a friend, stepping up to my next station and slowly drawing my CCW, a snubbie .357.

LOL, I really should buy one of these just so that I can do that again, although this time I may actually call for a pulled bird!

Mean looking piece Berto...I like it!

There aren't many brand new in the box ones left! I know where they are at and will tell you if you want one

can I go to jail for inside trading on firearm locations

Found some pictures, and it IS ugly, with a capital U. But it must kick but, I mean, what could be better than a .410/.45 handgun? Ultimate close in tool for terrorist disposal.

It definitely has the capability to remove unwanted visitors.

#4 shot at 25 yds will cover an area as wide as two
attackers plus some extra. Them 410 slugs are really loud and mean when they smack the target.

Ron, I really appreciate the hookup for this piece.
