Three guys walk into the Kenner Gunshow.....

[Dave328]

And one of them walks out with this:

Been looking off and on for close to 20 years, but the .357's are real hard to find, and when you do, the owners think they have the Holy Grail and price them accordingly! Walked out with this one for less than $900! Can't wait to hit the range this weekend!!

 

[noob]

I thought 44mag was the way to go.... And 50ae got the ones that want to show off!

 

[Dave328]

I guess that's why the .357's are so hard to find. Most go the .44 or .50AE route. I wanted .357 mainly because I already reload .38/.357 and didn't feel like adding yet ANOTHER caliber to the safe! Plus 9+1 of 158gr .357 ain't too shabby either!

 

[Candyman]

I've shot all three and do have to say that the 357 is the one I enjoyed the most. There is nothing fun about shooting the 50.

Should make an awesome carry gun. Lol looks cool enjoy.

Is there an IWB holster available for that?
Nice score.

 

[NOLASHOOTER]

I would go appendix. Easier to conceal.

That is a mans gun.

 

[DAVE_M]

Is there an IWB holster available for that?
Nice score.

A guy on the kydex forum tried lol

Most end up with a really low OWB or drop leg rig. Someone made an IWB Holster for a Glock 17 w/ X300 & RMR on a ALG Defense mount and it had an extra mag slot. So, I'm sure it could be done. It looked like a big crotch guard.

I carry a G17 IWB with a RMR. It can be done. If you want something custom made for it I can get you in contact with my friend who make them. Yours is a monster of a gun to go IWB.

 

[EonDresari]

Badass! The first handgun I ever fired was a cousin's Desert Eagle .44 Magnum...what a trip!

AIWB that monster would have the added bonus of ladies thinking you're exceptionally well equipped.

 

[JHenley17]

Pretty awesome. I have no use for a DE, and I'd reach for any of my other guns before it, but for some reason, I really want one. Guess I'm just a red-blooded American.

Or Jewish?

 

[general mills]

If concealed, that needs to appear from a shoulder holster under a suit jacket and deal death!!

 

[Devilneck]

But you should have only considered Glock..
(sarcasm)

Nice! I need another .357mag, one of those would be great.

 

[Beveaux]

The 357 is close to impossible to find. One of my "if I find it and have the cash, I buy" guns

 

[ultrasonic]

That's it, new carry style. "Crotch carry"!

 

[Dave328]

Funny this popped up today, I finally got a chance to shoot it! What a beast! I loaded up some 158gr XTP over 16.5 gr of 296. That's good for 1400-1500 fps! Three things I have noticed:
1. The thing is dead-nuts accurate!
2. It likes to be wet! (insert girlfriend joke here )
3. A HIGH, thumb forward grip + Desert Eagle = BAD JUJU!! OUCH!!
