    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    Tarus does make ported guns. #2 son has a Raging Bull. 454 casull with a ported 10" barrell. Even with the ports my children and I have decided that 10-15 full power loads are enough for one day at the range. Daughter has shot a bunch of 45 Colt loads, 165 grain lead,small amount of powder. Goes bang real good. She thinks it is the greatest gun going.

    It would be a great candidate for a custom sheriffs model project. It wouldn't bother me a bit to take a hack saw to it.

    Not "offended" but I don't think that porting is needed or looks good. The wood is very plain. I'm sure I wouldn't buy it but someone might for some reason.

    If it’s a true factory offering, it’s an instant collector’s item. Wait until they’re remaindered, buy a half dozen, don’t open the boxes, and store them for 20 years. They’ll appreciate faster than GameStop stock.

    I'm normally a fan of kind of ugly unusual design choices in firearms but this made me cringe.
    Not for me. Not offended, however.

    If it was in 41mag instead of 10mm, I'd buy it. I could build a thin steel sleeve to slide over the holes if it made to much noise
