If I were to collect large pistols what do i need for the collection? PPS-43c pistol 7.62x25 Thompson 1927-A1 pistol .45acp Vector V51p .308 winchester pistol Chiappa puma bounty hunter .44 magnum Cobray LHC .45-70 pistol Cobray .45 colt / .410 "mini street sweeper" Draco ak-47 type pistol 7.62x39 Bushmaster carbon pistol .223 Keltec plr-16 pistol 5.56 nato Desert Eagle .50ae Smith Wesson 500 Iver Johnson "enforcer" .30 carbine vz 61 skorpion .32 acp ?brand 50 BMG pistol I'm sure there are more out there to include the thompson contenders. Is there anything else that is missing?
Er, wow. I hadn't seen that before, but that has to be a contender for most powerful pistol on the planet -- at least in terms of total ft/lbs of muzzle energy that can be dispensed between reloads.
The puma isn't available in .45/70. The Cobray has a rotary magazine capable of 12 rounds which beats anything out there that I am aware of.
That's why I didn't comment on the BFR -- which by the way *IS* loads of fun. I figure the Cobray LHC in 45-70 is for when you are being stalked by a group of zombie grizzlies or elephants or something and happened to leave your Barrett 50 at home.
So what happens if you possess a 13" barreled handgun in Tennessee? Does your state call it a "short barreled rifle" or something like that, even though the feds call it a handgun? Or is it in some "other" category-- neither a handgun nor a long gun? And what laws apply to such a firearm? Is it simply an issue of carrying it with a State Carry Permit? It has to be a "handgun" to be legal to carry with a permit?
