Well alright then.
Very nice piece. I met a man who had one of the Sporters and he graciously let me shoot a magazine full. What a shooter! Those star-gauged barrels are no joke.

I shot about 40 rounds of .38 Special reloads from a Model 28, four inch, and
two snubnoses, an M649 and an M38. The 28 is a former cop gun and has
Pachmayr rubber grips. A very serious-looking revolver.
Target was a plastic Folger's coffee can. Locale was a sandpit outside
town. (It's closer than the area ranges and I was in a bit of a hurry.)
Range was 20 yards at first, then I stretched it to about 40.
The can had one hole in it when I started. It has a whole lot more
now.
The 28 has always shot well and today I did OK with the snubs too.
The weather has cooled off and the bugs weren't bad at all this
morning.
As part of my exploration of IDPA, I shot the 5x5 Classifier twice at the beginning of my practice session--using an IDPA legal lightened Shadow2. Here are the times:
(all 10yds)
5 freestyle: 2.59, 2.43+1
5 SHO: 3.82+1, 3.49
5 reload 5: 6.50+1, 5.74
4 body 1 head: 2.73, 2.82
Raw: 15.64, 14.48
Points down: 2, 1
Total: 17.64, 15.48 (cutoff for Master is 18.47 or less)
(Note the head shot is where the upper A zone is on a USPSA target. Still not used to the IDPA targets...)

I guess technically that would be considered a destructive device. It is a single shot 40 mm less lethal launcher. It is made by Lewis machine and tool. The best way I can describe it is that it is a big single shot shotgun that uses a Smith and Wesson revolver action. We use it to shoot a variety of impact and chemical munitions. Our patrol guys only use foam impact rounds. Hurts like hell, but you can shoot it as close as 5 feet from someone and if you shoot them in the correct area it should not seriously injure them.
