Auto Mag .44 AMP

Morning, Looking at an Auto Mag, wondering what the group knows about them.  Made in Pasadena, CA.

Didn’t Dirty Harry use one of those in the last Dirty Harry movie?

Acording to what I have looked into, I almost bought one a few years back, missed it, glad I did. The older ones had feed issues and sometimes had a come apart. Matt with demolition ranch did a video about the one he has and in the video it had to come apart. I personally would not buy one.

The new ones are VERY nice and work properly and reliably.  I have an older one.  Original magazines don't work well.  New magazines 'might' work in an original pistol.  I have to do some light filing to get a new mag to work in my pistol.  Now, it works perfectly!

Get a mag loader.  Your thumbs will thank you!

Factory ammo is available, but expensive.  (What ammo isn't these days?!)  If you reload, you can cut down GI .308 cases and load up your own ammo.  

If you buy the Pasadena gun, get a set of new springs.

They are a lot of fun and always attract attention at the range.

It's interesting to read this about the new ones.  I've always heard that the earlier ones were jammomatics that, when they fired, would eject their superexpensive brass into low earth orbit.  If they've finally gotten these guns to work after so many years, it would be fun to try one.

Cheers,

Well, I now own the gun.  We will see.  Being a Clint Eastwood fan, I couldn't not.

I priced some of the new models last year, $3500 or more. Am sure they are nice. They sure look bad azz! I went with the Desert Eagle in 44 mag.

Mack Bolan would disagree! He knocked off a lot of Mafia and Terrorists with his 44 Auto Mag!!!  

I used to read these books religiously when I was in middle school and high school!

Let us know how you like it?

Does it function well at the range?

The tv show Gun Stories did a good show about this gun
