    BFR Revolvers, anybody got one-shoot one?

    I was reading the smith vs ruger thread and made mew think about these revolvers that I have never seen in the flesh and only heard a limited about them.

    What says you guys in the know? Just looking to learn more about the line. Im a 357 / 44 mag guy, if that matters.

    I handled a 47-70 once. Not good for more than saying you have one. Huge, heavy, unwieldy, heavy, extremely front heavy. Can't imagine how someone would even shoot that thing

    Like the ones in 444 Marlin, 45-70 and such? Or 500 S&W or 460S&W. I have shot the latter. Recoil is manageable but significant as is the gas blast. Expensive to shoot.

    I thought they were very good guns in 357 or 44 mag? No ? Are those too heavy and outrageous too?
