I wonder what the accuracy would be with no rifling? A four inch barrel would barely be long enough for the case, and would leave the entire bullet hanging out the muzzle. :grin:

Yep. Moderate accuracy at three yards or less, preferably the less; 550 rounds per minute helps with potential self-defense, failure-to-neutralize inaccuracies. And very intimidating looking at that distance, especially with the bullet stickin' right out at ya'.

The weight with the optional 4-inch barrel for concealed carry is a bit on the heavy side at 79 pounds, plus ammo. And it is kinda tough to use at night with that barrel length: not much control on the muzzle flash.

But, hey; it is a JMB design, so LT can put up with a few minor inconveniences. He doesn't try to carry this one at church, though...

I would think the "consumed in a ball of fire" effect would effectively neutralize most BGs at under 3 yards.

No, church carry is the Taurus 85 in a Galco tuckable. Little lighter than the 79 lbs. ;-)
