There have been a couple pop up for sale on my local gunboard every now and then....they are hand cannons!

I'd rather just have a .460 Rowland though.

Get a CZ 52 10 times cheaper. Just as much punch. .762X25 will puncture a Kevlar vest.

Grip angle is off (which really effects some of us) and they fail too much - especially the firing pin safety.
A CZ-52 with a defective firing pin safety killed a close friend of mine. http://www.yourhoustonnews.com/courier/news/magnolia-resident-apparent-victim-of-accidental-shooting/article_6ed93e53-ef49-5c2d-90f5-6d14f7191533.html

I love mine with the 6" barrel. It handles reloads well and is a flame thrower.

Find yourself a 1911 in 38 Super. Nearly the same pop as the Coonan 357...Same caliber bullet and more common parts.

But hey, I have 1911s in 9mm Luger, 38 super, 400 Corbon and 45 ACP to play around with...
