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 didn’t. you’re certainly not getting more than a couple shots max out of that before it and your hand is a mangled mess.

Like I said elsewhere… I think that’s 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?

That’s an overly expensive hand grenade, with an reliable arming mechanksm, imo

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

  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.
