I think we need a "modern fighting revolver" with a bull on the side. Another idea, collect some of these coins and patches with a legit off the shelf Taurus.

I was just having this very conversation that the View would actually be awesome if it was a 22 MagOriginally Posted by Polecat
Aside from needing an unholy marriage of the stressfire reload and Bruce Lee’s 1-inch punch to eject the empties, I think you’re on to something.
I’d dig a .22LR version, myself. In case anyone important (who might be tagged) is listening.

@jetfire, revolver idiot question: is there a reason other than cost-cutting that 9mm and .22 revolvers have .357 length cylinders and frames?

Not really, no. It's perfectly possible to build a revolver with a frame window appropriate to the cartridge length of a smaller round. The problem is that it would cost a lot of money to alter the production process; since when a steel frame J-frame is born, it doesn't know if it's going to be a 327 Fed Mag or a 357 Magnum, for example.
If anyone company could pull it off and make it affordable, it would need to be a company that controls every step of their manufacturing process, from forgings to MIM...
I'm guessing you have a company in mind... :-).
My sense is that (at least to revolver-leaning individuals), those shorter frame/cylinder guns are eye-catching and attractive. Heck, I don't even like revolvers and I wish my LCR9 had a 9mm length frame and cylinder.

So, to pirate off of another thread, since this is Talk Like a Pirate Day, I'd like to see Taurus's version of a .45 Colt mountain gun.
If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.
I hope Marketing Manager means wearing a shirt that says Taurus on it and shooting in a lot of regional and national matches.

Same here. If you guys can get them to turn out a product that is reliable and durable, I could swallow my Taurus hate.
Oh, BTW, when is the Taurus 2011 coming out?
