I've been giving that concept some thought. That photo is obviously staged, but the mobility with a motorcycle, especially in an urban environment is intriguing.... DixieDennis
Or a Rossi M92, especially considering the revolver is a Taurus (Which owns Rossi). Same type of stock, right size/shape for the scabbard. Surprisingly good guns, for the money. They can be easily upgraded with parts from a website called Stevesgunz (SASS parts and upgrades, also does some gunsmithing.)
I have a 16" M92 saddle carbine in .45 Colt, as a companion to my 5.5" Taylor Co. Single Action Army. When I got the M92 the internals were rough, the mag follower was cheap plastic, and it had a stupid safety installed in the bolt. Picked up a small spacer that removes the safety, a polished steel follower, upgraded springs and sights (all from the previously mentioned website.) and went over all the internals and trigger/hammer with medium/fine india stones (internals, including receiver and bolt.) and fine/ultra fine india stones (trigger and hammer). Now it runs smooth as grease on glass, and has a 4.5 lbs trigger. Very fast, very light, and very accurate. Just need to get around to installing tritium sights.
How zat guy make left turns ? It appears the end of the scabbard collides with front tire, though it may just be depth perspective error.
ReplyDelete.44 Magnum it appears to be - nice !
Looks interesting...
ReplyDeleteBut there's one problem...
Heat off that engine

Posed nicely, but Posed.
ReplyDeleteNot a usable arrangement. The pistol holster would fry and possibly cook off rounds.
Rifle scabbards get mounted on the front forks for a reason.
Throttle is on the right side too, so you stop and drop the bike?
ReplyDeleteName that long gun.
ReplyDeleteWas thinking Mini-14 or 30, but I don't see the sling swivel (which could have obviously been removed).
DeleteRuger 44 deerfield. Maybe
DeleteI think it is, Okie.

I love that Mad Max concept...may be useful very soon.
ReplyDeleteIt might also be a Ruger 10-22, Number 3, 44 Carbine, Mini 14, Mini 30, or AC556.
ReplyDeleteEver fired anything larger than a 9mm from a motorcycle? Add to that the bike is a top heavy HD Sportster. Too many things are wrong here.
ReplyDeleteUsed to do that with my Model '94 and saddle scabbard. Drove the cops crazy.
ReplyDeleteLooks like my Rossi Ranch hand, Solve the problem with a throttle control. Just a thought...
ReplyDeleteAmerican bike, Brazilian revolver. Sheesh, if you’re going to strap a wheel gun to your Harley, make it a S&W at the least.
