Hi guys, I'm new member, I'm an Italian gun-lover and already since now I want to give you my apologies for my bad english.
I'm great big-bore calibers lover (as you can simply understand reading my username!) and would be my intention buy a BFR revolver in .45-70 Gov or 450 Marlin, or perhaps both (unfortunatly in Italy .500 S&W is not legal if it is chambered in a revolver, but only in single-shot handgun).
What you can advice me about? Is it really the great, strong, powerful, and accurate handgun that much people say (an american friend of mine has said to me that it is "stronger than a bank safe and accurate like a sniper rifle")? In your opinion is more powerfull the .45.70 or the .450 Marlin? Then, what's highest energy level I can reach with both calibers, if I reload them at maximum power (shooting them out a 10.5" barrel)? And more, I've watched BFR website and I've seen there's a "Precision Center" who makes a sort of "custom" revolver (like S&W's Performance Center): in what are different PC and standard BFR revolvers? Does it make revolvers with a custom barrel length (12" or 13")?
At the moment that's all. I'm sorry for the great number of questions, bt unfortunatly in my country is not easy to find informations like these.
Thank you all partners
