BFR .475 Linebaugh Question

Where do you find them? I have looked local, did the Google thing, even Buds is out of them. If you guys don't know, no one does. Clue me in, I'm looking for a 6.5" barrel. Thanks DD

bfr, ruger, all do them in runs, they sell down and then they build more, should be making more in a few months.

Look on Gunbroker and AuctionArms, there always seems to be a wide variety.

Have you called Magnum Research? That is where I would start. They may tell you who their distributors are and may know about inventory.

Beware, once bitten by the big bore bug; there's no turning back.

What barrel length are you looking to get?

I'm looking for a 6.5" barrel, thinking it will carry easier.

And as far as warning me off the big bores, I have to lay blame with you, Whitworth, BFR shooter, and a few others that will remain nameless.

After seeing the accuracy you guys are capable of, it got me itchin.

The other thing that is interesting is how effective those revolvers are at getting the job done, in the velocity race alot of folks seem to be in (im guilty) its not always the answer. And you guys prove it with your handguns on a regular basis.
