[Mr. 16 gauge]

Thanks for all the replies.

Well, I went in yesterday after work and put down a deposit on one.....after working 18 hours the day before on one extremely difficult case with a pissy surgeon, I didn't feel so guilty about it!
However, I opted for the .357 mag version instead of the .45LC.....It was somewhat a matter of economics: I already have bullet molds, dies, cases, primers, ect. for the .357 and as I said earlier, I only plan on shooting paper & cans with it, so I don't have to be that authentic. Besides, I think a good JSP or JHP in .357 mag will do just as well as a lead .45 slug (giving that I do my part).
No I'm looking at custom grips and cowboy holsters....I already have the hat & boots!
Thanks again for all your input! I'll post a pic or two when I get it out of layaway.
