Ok...Picked these up in an estate sale that i have a question about...

The one on the left is a .40 cal.I suspect it's a wad cutter.

The 5 in the middle are .38 special's and new to me...

The one one the right however is a 9mm Black Talon rumored to be designed by Chuck Norris and only 2 know example's in the world....

I may auction it off at a starting bid of $ 27,442.89..or just keep it in a safe...

What do you think ?

Oh, Added note ..If any wish to bid on the Super Cool Black Talon...Just Post it...Thanks'

lol...

I can't be certain but I think the third one from the left is named Waldo.

Where's he been?

What are you drinking tonight?

Gator 45/70 · May 22, 2012

Why a bit of B.L. while changing the oil and filter on the jeep...Domestic stuff..

JBP55 · May 22, 2012

Sounds like J.D.B.L.

Gator 45/70 · May 22, 2012

Pass on that...Perhaps later a taste of C.R.Black..

Fluffy2022 · May 22, 2012

the ones in the middle look like 38 ratshot rounds idk though

dwr461 · May 22, 2012

The NAACP objected because... well, you figure it out.

So if I understand correctly these rounds should've been named Black Panther's?

Didley...You know you need this...lol

The one on the right is, without doubt, a dreaded Black Talon. Its worth at least ten grand, as everybody knows these horribly lethal killers were banned soon after their debut.

In all seriousness, they WERE dropped when Winchester caved into the AMA and NAACP. The medicos objected on the grounds that the "talons" so produced when the round expanded were lying in wait, ready to puncture the surgical glove of some ER sawbones probing around in the guts of some miscreant. Not an unreasonable assumption, but still slightly ludicrous. Amazingly enough, there are several other brands of bullet out there which have the same characteristics (and have since the Black Talon was around). Funny... the AMA is strangely silent on these.

The NAACP objected because... well, you figure it out.

So I'm assuming that the black talon is indeed a shoot to kill bullet. I think you may be best keeping that little bit in your bug out bag, never know when you'll want to have a real bullet around.

VeedUp · May 22, 2012

You have a semi-wad-cutter, some wad-cutters, and the infamous black talon, when absolutely everyone must die.

jimdana1942 · May 23, 2012

There all .22 shorts.

SVTFreak · May 23, 2012

A 9mm black talon is one helluva round but still no comparison to a 10mm black talon.

Only for extream emergency

Lol. Remind me again how I got dragged into this?

Mr_Willson · May 23, 2012

the ones in the middle are just 38sp wadcutters

I shot some before

GunRelated · May 23, 2012

Left - .40 Black Talon, Right - .40 Ranger T

Not that I would like to take a hit from either of them, or any bullet for that matter, but if I had to make a choice between the 2, I would have to take my chances with the Black Talon because these Ranger T's are simply vicious. My insides start to shred themselves just from looking at them. This was the only talon I owned, it was given to me by a friend a couple years ago. I guess I shouldn't have shot it, considering the current market value.

SVTFreak · May 23, 2012

Whoa. The earths rotation slowed slightly when you fired that thing!

edman87k5 · May 23, 2012

I thought those were dum dums? All the old timers that I knew called them that and they were super easy to reload.
I may not be seeing it right though, iPhone pic is small.

Blackhawk · May 23, 2012

those in the middle look amazingly like the popular 148 grain bevel base wadcutters I used to cast and reload, not to be confused with 148 grain hollow-base wadcutters (purchased) which, when turned around and loaded upside down, made a BIG hollow point.
