Old exchange rate. Currently, it would be $21,840.

OK, I'll give you that although it's a one-off and not for sale. The .600 nitro is. Perhaps I should have stuck "available" in there.

I've got to wonder through, did he actaully pull the trigger while aiming like that, or was perhaps about 50' of rope involved?

Yup! Looks like a handful and I ain't lyin'! I have fired a Thompson Center chambered in .45-70. Twice. The first one I blame on the guy that duped me into it, the second I have only myself to blame. Don't reckon I'll ever be doin' THAT again. :leaving

I can NOT imagine the sound or the recoil of that cannon. Something pretty bad would have to be about to happen to me before I'd pull the trigger on that monster...I mean REALLY bad. :nono:

Heck, I'm too scared to even consider firing a .50 desert eagle. I'd never shoot that thing. But I'd watch someone else! :lol:

I'm not sure who's in more danger the guy you try to hit with it or the guy pulling the trigger,I wonder if anybody has ever been killed by recoil
