Medusa Handi? 380, 9mm, 357 etc out of the same barrel...
« on: January 04, 2010, 06:00:56 AM »
Have you seen the Medusa 47 revolver? It has a special chamber that allows it to take 25+ different kinds of ammunition. It'll hold both rimmed and rimless cartridges and shoots both kinds pretty accurately. I wonder if it would be possible to machine a 357 mag Handi barrel to allow the same kind of versatility?

Already done that, not with a .38 but with an interchangable 307/308 Winchester.  Same would apply to the pistol cartridges, hold it in place with one of the wide ejectors modified to drop down when you load a rimless round.  Larry

A gun is just like a parachute, if you ever really need one, nothing else will do.
