Stopped at Ammo AZ today,They had tons of inventory to say the least.And i did spot a New Springfield Armory Emissary.Kinda like a reworked up Ronin.Excellent frame to slide fit.The grenade checkering on front strap and MSH plus slim grenade checkered grip are very grippy.I like the way it held.
Sights are excellent but the tri cut slide just didnt do it for me.Squared trigger is plastic on the unit i handled,ok trigger job.Barrel is a standard bull barrel,not a NM.Noticed hammer,slide stop,safety are MIM.Price was $1099.00 plus tax,about normal for what you get.
Yep, I was there the other day as well, saw the same thing, said "mehhh". But, I did get my grubby hands on that S&W 500, Oh my, Oh my.
Have a great, gun carryin', Kenpo day
Clyde
if you remember that illfated day we all went out to flat mountain and had a warm weather shoot (112), and i shot Azhighcountrys' (aka Bob) 500 S & W, it screwed up my wrist for about 7 months before i could shoot right handed, but did assist me in becoming a better shot with me left hand, he had loaded it quite hot, and being not the brightist bulb on the tree that day, i shot it three times, oh yeah, before the grey matter said, '' uh oh''
cannon for sure
get one, you need it,
Yep.. hand cannons are great to fondle, but old guys would be wise to relegate the shooting of them to the youngin's....
Same goes for large caliber rifles. I remember at one of the BBQ shoots, we tried to convince ol' Roger not to shoot that 50 caliber rifle.
He shot it anyway and had a few tough weeks after that. Young folks have more strength, better bone structure, stronger muscles, generally no arthritis and the really important trait, the ability to recover quickly from injury.
I still do enjoy shooting a .50 cal, but only from a tripod and using a belt.
