I'd think an xray or something like that would be in order.

gundoc OP 14 point Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 8,145 In front of my lathe	Originally Posted by Out back My guess would be.... All the rounds were low power, reduced recoil loads. Combined with the fact that a revolver will vent the pressure by the cylinder. That's the only reason somebody didn't lose a hand. Those are the only reason I can figure as well the gun didn’t come apart in his hand. Specially with it being an alloy frame Last edited by gundoc; 07/21/19 09:11 AM.

Yeah, with a Taurus I'm not sure I'd go to the trouble to try to salvage it in usable condition. There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world: 1. All Politicians Are Liars 2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement 3. Taxation Is Theft
