My point was not every gun dealer is on the up & up. Talk to friends and find a good local guy.

He was a farmer. Here's a little back round on our "fine furry friends".

They dig under buildings and compromise foundations.

The holes in the pastures are places for livestock to break legs ( they must be destroyed then )

The holes in fields can break farm equipment or cause hay wagons to tip over.

They also carry diseases.

I understand all that, but a .44 mag is a pretty expensive round for groundhog plinking.

At least it takes balls and muscles to handle the .454 unlike the .45ACP where even the weakest motherfuckers can use. The .45ACP are for the small dicks who need something to compensate but ain't man enough to use real man's magnum calibers.

BTW, he used the M1 carbine and M1 Garand in Sands of Iwo Jima, M16 in The Green Berets, .38 Special revolver in Flying Leather Necks and nothing in In Harm's Way.

All that .454 casull is a hot loaded .45 colt.

You go running at the mouth about the .454 and all i can think about is the movie Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man

A well placed .22lr does the job. .30-30 is overkill- as in

A .44

My buddy's wife likes her S&W, it's a .50 S&W.

She 4'-10" and probably 110 lbs soaking wet.

Ah...no!!! The hot loaded .45 Colt is about the equivalence to a .44 Magnum. Hot but no .454 Casull hot. Two bucks a round, three bucks a round, who cares? It makes big bang.

Ok but where are you going to conceal that bitch? For home defense? A high cap, short barrel Shotgun is the way to go. Like a Browning BPS hi cap.
