Lift some weights nerd. Stop limp wristing it.

[BadWolf8333]

I think there's a market for a reasonably priced .357 magnum semi auto. Wish gun makers would jump on this...

[wolfman4lph4]

I must own one, but can't, only sixteen :-/ awesome handgun though, I love it :D

[99nightowl]

LOL 0:58 ITS A PISTOL FLAMETHROWER GET TO COVER!!! :D

[mithras718]

Seems like a lot of rotational torque?!

[STATHISBSG]

could this flames burn the air?

[VicariousReality7]

Seems like tere is a lot o unburnt powder

[jdeckman]

I know it's exaggerated due to the slow-motion, but it sure seems to jump around in your hand quite a bit. Does it feel that way in 'real-time'? Having said that, that's a cool video, and very good quality.

[Outdoorsman572]

That's a great video. What camera and software did you use to slow it down?

[RoadCoder]

shoot a hundred rounds and then see how you feel

If not for YT's copyright BS, the song "Ring of Fire" would probably fit pretty well in the background on this clip. ;-)

[cornrizzle]

wow thats got some muzzle flash

[ClarTV]

The Coonan Classic is a very fine hand gun. I love mine. It is the most fun I have had at the range in a long time.

[TheHiddenPart]

most impressive! Bravo!

Any way of having you making a tabletop review of it?

[wavelength1970]

@TheHiddenPart I'll see what I can do...

[arisotele]

awesome



[ScarletAvatar]

Must buy one

[Patjersey3000]

Nice. Do you reload?

[wavelength1970]

@Patjersey3000 I don't, but my father in law who owns it does. I don't think he has started reloading 357s or 38s yet though

[CombatMasterpiece]

@wavelength1970 Hey Wave, great video awesome gun. Will that thing function with all the various .357mag grain weights? ex 124-180?

[wavelength1970]

@CombatMasterpiece Most of what I fired through it was 158 grain, which worked perfectly. We tried this RWS brand 357mag ammo, and had a lot of FTE. That RWS stuff was way undercharged, it didn't have anywhere near the recoil the Federal or Winchester ammo did.  Don't remember the bullet weight on those.

I can definitely see the need for sunglasses and perhaps sunblock when using that gun!  Very cool!
