1. Is this real?
2. Are there any of these guns still around?
John Roberts
i hear these are complete 100 percent unobtainium. i want one
Charles Cook
They have a new model...
James Russell
It's okay. I didn't need healthy wrists anyway.

Every time someone says that we find a crate of Prvi Partizan ammo for it. Its a meme for gunshops to charge $100 a round.

Might as well post a flamethrower

Are there somewhat less ludicrous M1 rechamberings, like .300WinMag?
Oliver Long
I think it's mere existence is it's purpose.
It's marketed as a sporting/target shooting round, so I guess it's for when you absolutely must put a .950 inch hole in some paper 300yds away

I'm not exact on the distance. I don't own one, but that's the only use I can imagine for it.
Easton Reyes
Will this actually work? Why won’t this just blow up the barrel?
Austin Morgan
No, it's not real
They're ancient meme drawings that a gun writer published back in the 1940's as a joke.
The one user posted is not the .577, though the one on Forgotten Weapons was. Tranter revolvers came in a variety of calibers.
Benjamin Brown
Too many unknown variables. If it was a slow powder, and you had a custom gun that could actually chamber that thing, then it could theoretically be fired without anything exploding. That said, the gun would be impractically heavy, and the shot pattern would suck balls. Shotguns work best when the shot fills the cartridge/barrel to a length roughly equal to the barrel's diameter, or perhaps a little bit longer. Long skinny charges of shot make for shitty patterns. If you wanted to fire that much shot it would make more sense to do it from a much larger bore, like a 4-bore or even a punt gun.
So yeah, that's just a silly novelty, assuming it's not a 'shoop.

Yeah, that tranter looks like the .500 model, not the .577

There was a gunsmith who specialized in them, and he's now dead, so if you want one of *his* then yeah, those are unobtanium. Otherwise it's something any competent gunsmith can do.
>buy .458 cal barrel blank
>machine to M1 garand specification
>swap barrel
The ammo is the same length and case heads very similar in shape so I don't think anything other than minor tweaks would need to be made to any other parts. Pressures are the same too, so if the action can handle a .30-06 it can also handle the .458. You'd either have to experiment to get the correct gas port size, or just install an adjustable gas block (a common thing for M1 owners anyway). IIRC the original guy also put a mercury recoil reducer in the stock; that's probably wise given the caliber.
Cooper Turner
I love the Mars pistol. Too bad they're mad expensive.
Juan Foster
IIRC, they call it a "4 bore" under the current Euro standards, but if you go by the traditional British/American system (# of spheres of pure lead to the pound) it's more like a 6.5 bore or something like that. The originals were made by repurposing 23mm aircraft cannon barrels. A true 4-bore (by the American/Brit system) measures slightly over 1 inch (25.4mm)
