Not arguing about the mangled mess, but the concept at least is a real item

I am seriously skeptical that that is a real gun that could fire without exploding, let alone you being able to hang on to it if it didnât. youâre certainly not getting more than a couple shots max out of that before it and your hand is a mangled mess.

Comparing .45-70 to .50 BMG is like comparing .22lr to .223 Remington.
But this is a 12 gauge pistol with a .50 cal in it.

Tbf itâs tough to tell the scale from the pic, it looks like it could be a .410 with a .308 in it.

Your hand might take a beating, but the gun would be fine. Generally speaking, assuming there are no microfractures from manufacturing defects, if the steel and the design can withstand one shot, it can withstand tens of thousands. Assuming, of course, you perform the required PMCS and donât fire so quickly as to overheat the steel.

Like I said elsewhere⌠I think thatâs a 50 BMG round.
⌠there are reasons why you almost never see break action / top break revolvers and pistols.
Mainly, they do not tend to do well with high chamber pressure.
A break action 50 BMG pistol?
Thatâs an overly expensive hand grenade, with an reliable arming mechanksm, imo
