I wouldn't use a human head for self-defense, too big to EDC and you get wierd looks.
Lol 🤣
Try a ballistic torso then?
😂
Hahahaha, that comment just made my day😂
Yeah, you’d need to go shrunken head for EDC
😂😂
Believe it or not, the design of that handle mitigates recoil exceptionally well. Makes the gun roll back. They were designed to be shot with 1 hand.
Makes sense! It feels great
I just love it when my firearm rolls back in my hand as I’m defending mine or my family’s lives.
I love how it’s purposefully designed to roll back in the hand with a round that’s very low felt recoil. Man I just love the muzzle flip, but hey bill Ruger thought it was great.
The same bill Ruger that said as long as he’s alive sturm ruger wouldn’t make an AR and participated in helping the 10 round maximum Clinton firearms bill.
I live when firearms are designed to make it harder to defend human life with a rather small caliber to begin with and boy do I love being betrayed by a man that started a firearm company by siding with the Dems. Yeaaaaahhh.
@@peterreily1490 You know not all firearms HAVE TO be optimized for self-defense and combat, right?
Just buy semi auto handgun, semi shotgun or a semi rifle (not necessarily of AR system) and either dress like commando/special forces or barricade your house against intruders (just to make it clear - I am totally 100% happy you can do this, what I say is not pejorative. In my country Self Defense is illegal and owning guns for self defense is only for politicians and special people. So I am glad you can do this in US. Sincerely).
And let people who just love guns for collecting or shooting targets have fun with their unoptimized modern single actions, lever actions (though hunters like them too), older bolt actions etc.
If you leave in a state where gun laws sucks then imagine there are people who live in a COUNTRIES where gun laws are 10 times worse and unlike you we cannot sacrifice everything, sell everything and move to another state if we dream about it/need it very bad.
We have to get immigration visa which has NO DIRECT/SURE way to obtain. You either need to marry US woman, or win a lottery or invest over 1 million dollar invested in US.
I know your life is difficult too, you have suffered many hard moments in life.
But in terms of gun rights - you were born and as you turned 15/21 your right to bear arms was AUTOMATICALLY given to you as US citizen.
In my country you are born and remain for your entire life BANNED from owning firearms. There are exceptions like for example sport shooting license that makes you temporary (as long as you own license) EXEPT from general default ban. It takes like 8-10 months to get license and steps and difficulty is EQUIVALENT OF S LEVEL SECURITY CLEARANCE IN US!
Therefore you can search 500 houses in my country and there will be no guns in them. Its a niche while you have a gun culture, gun enthusiast circles, many biiiig ranges and SOME GUN LOBBY. I know you think its shitty lobby. But it is.
If you don't believe me we can exchange - I want to live in your state with your citizen privilleges. You can come here and do a license that will take thousands of money and 10-12 so that you can have any gun of CALIBER UP TO .49 as long as you have the license. And you are obligated to store it in a safe overnight, if your house is attacked your son cannot use it (cause that will land you in jail for making it accessible to people who not supposed to have access), if it is stolen YOU got to jail (cause its your fault). If you forget to hide one round of ammunition into safe and go shopping you go to jail, if you use it in self defense you go to jail even if you are a clear victim, if you buy a gun and do not register it in 6 days personally you go to jail. But you can buy overpriced .45 or even .460 cal.
So wanna swap places? You can buy big caliber once you get license that will take you thousands and many months to do? Wanna swap with me? Cmon!
@@peterreily1490 while that is all true, i just picked up a Ruger SFAR. Companies change. Relax.
@@1ShotTV can you test 40s&w caliber vs gel human head
The gun is part of why you don't feel much kick. The handles of old-west style revolvers are designed to roll back in the hand, since they were supposed to be fired one handed.
Wait until you try a .45 colt in one of those. It's a transcendent experience.
Agreed 100 %. I've had a Ruger Blackhawk 6" in 45lc for a while now, one of my faves!
Plus the gun is all steel, so it’s heavy. Having a 6”(I’m assuming) makes it easier.
Two years ago I got a Ruger GP100 357 Magnum in SS with the 4" barrel, 7-shot cylinder and the black rubber/wood insert grips. I fell in love with revolvers at that point. But I was getting range time in and the damn thing just stopped working. The hammer would not pull back, the cylinder would not release, the trigger was locked up tight. I was bewildered. The myth that revolvers were ultra reliable and indestructible was shattered. Took it to the shop I bought it from and their inhouse smith was also baffled, so they got an RMA and shipping label from Ruger and it went back to hospital it was born in. I thought "well...I won't see that thing for two months and it would be a pissing match about something I did/did not do and all the drama..." Not even close. Ruger fixed it, did a professional cleaning job and the dealer called me 4 days later saying it was ready to be picked up! WTF? He said that they replaced the hammer, pawl (whatever that is) the seer/sear (again, no clue) the cylinder ratchet and realigned the whole thing. 4 days! Shout out to Ruger. They stepped up to the plate and hit a grand slam with me. Talking to my gun guy at the shop I asked if there was something I could do/not do to prevent this from happening. He looked me straight in the eye and said "sometimes shit just happens. It's a mechanical device like anything else and that's that". The gunsmith said that he sees that issue with some models of S&W, but never with a Ruger. So, bottom line is...well, I am not sure what the bottom line is. Make what you will of this story. All I know is I am a Ruger guy for life now.
I love Ruger Sturm. Especially the revolvers. Had a security six 357 and black hawk 41 in my young days. Excellent handguns.
Ps aka hand pawl btw. It's a small lever inside frame behind cylinder, it's used to rotate the cylinder. Connects to hammer which of course is activated by trigger. I'm guessing yours bent or snapped inside and got locked in place.
Happened to me with my pietta 1851 sheriff. The small spring behind the hand pawl lever snapped, luckily for me it fell out without getting caught on any action. Had to aim gun at ground as spring no longer pushed prawl against cylinder, just to cock it at get it rotating.
@@dickdastardly8150 Thanks for the info! You were exactly right. It broke according to the work order. I had a hell of a time getting the cylinder out just to remove the unused rounds. Like I said, locked up tight. I have been doing some research into internal revolver parts and your explanation of the pawl is bang on. It's what keeps everything in time and prevents backward rotation. I was under the false impression that revolvers were indestructible. They're much less likely to have an issue, but they're still mechanical devices and will fail occasionally. I was just happy it was not something I was doing/not doing that caused the breakage
Me too started with a S&W then went to a Ruger semi auto. Was the P89 and i could not believe how well that gun was made. I love a Beretta 92FS but somthing about the Ruger was so much more quality. Then went to GP100 because i like 357 better then 9mm even though you have way lets shots but if i need all them shots i am no longer in a situation that i can control. Going for long gun at that point and calling friends. Have a match champion gp100 now with the 4" will probably be my forever home defense bump in the night gun.
@@frostyy1983 I remember my friend had a p89 and my other friend had a p90, I had a p85 mk2. The most definitely did have a better trigger than the Beretta in both stages, not as long a pull. But my only problem with the p series as I sold mine for this reason. I called it snaggle puss as it got caught in every holster I owned. It was a tank of a pistol and for the price can't beat it. Just wasn't for me, they are great pistols though.
Antonio Banderas used 2 p90s in the desperado film and Ryan Gosling used a p89 in place beyond the pines.
Those who are not familiar with revolvers do not realize that if you don't release the trigger all the way and cock the gun manually you can jam up the cylinder if you try to fire double action and don't release all the way you can lock up the cylinder. Not saying that is what happened to you but you but it is possible. You should thoroughly learn the manual of arms with any weapon you are firing. I am old enough that I went through the police academy with a revolver. That platform has its own nuances. A single action revolver also has a manual of arms you should become familiar with
I'm loving this series. Black powder, single action and lever action are my favorite to shoot by far. Great videos can't wait for the next installment of this series
I got a marlin 30-30, we should hang out lol
This revolver comparison series is awesome to me for sure! That slowmo was brutal on the dummy head. There’s plenty more cowboy calibers and frames out there and it’s cool seeing them get attention
+1
+2
Love my 41 mag Rugers
Yeah I agree. Love the single action army style.
@@slelliott14 I miss my black hawk. Great guns
And I'm loving how you and kentucky are bringing out all these old antique revolvers...some time the old stuff is more interesting than the new:). Gunfighting in the old west was harder than people think lol. There were no red dots lol
I've noticed this as well. In my encyclopedias I can see further back weapons are far more intricate with many concepts and operation types. After the nineteen fifties it seems production became simple and similar at the same time. Now a days operations are pretty much all common, kinda boring if you ask me.
When I'm at gun store I always go to look for old weapons. Really don't like when they try to sale me something that looks like everything else on the market. Granted manufacturers have their own signature style ques but the feel and operation is all the same. I honestly have not been impressed with any new guns.
357 magnum has always been my favorite caliber. Especially with my S&W 686 plus. Definitely gets the job done 👍
.357 is a wicked round for its size!
Would have been cool to see what .38 special rounds would do in comparison?
Plus p 38 maybe.
About half I'd say, 38special runs about 850 to 900 fps with a 158grain pill where the 357mag runs between 1500 to 1700 fps with a 125grain
@@ericswink3919 right, just would be fun to visualize the different
@@markcole6475 I'm right their with ya. Cuz I'm a ballistic nerd 🤓 I love to see all the different calibers and weights.
The .38 special has been dropping bodies a lot longer than .357 Magnum. But the .357 Magnum is a better round all together.
One of the best revolvers I've seen so far! Keep it up buddy!
Love the series so far Can’t wait to see whats next! Great video
Thanks man!
I have a S&W 686 Plus, .357 7-shot with the 5-inch barrel. But it's double action.
My first revolver purchase was a S&W 686 with 6"bbl. That was 1988. Still have it today and still puts a smile on your face everytime you pull the trigger
Immune to recoil?
Someone get Scott and have him do a collab!!!!
My first handgun was a Ruger blackhawk 357 mag and I've never had a problem with recoil my sister who was very small shot it with no problem
Ok, I'm LOVING this series!!!
Dude this video was edited really well - that Russian Roulette intro was really cool, and I enjoyed your voiceover talking about the gun overlaid with you shooting at the targets. Great video!
I would love to see a crossover episode with Kentucky Ballistic, the man immune to recoil. Could be funny to test your resistance against bigger guns. Great contend, thanks! ^^
I have been suggesting a collaboration between 1ShotTv and Kentucky Ballistics for a while now....
Especially that 4 bore. 😱
Straight to the point thanks
Loving this Series Looking forward to the .44 Mag!! My Fav to carry!
👍
I absolutely love my Ruger Blackhawk 357 mag. I have used it for deer hunting. I love it so much I bought a lever action 357 mag and a snub nose 357 mag. The 125 grain jhp is no joke!! Thanks for the great video.👏👏👏👏
So glad I have a SW Model 19 with a 4" barrel, great all around pistol.Your video confirmed what I've known all along. Thanks. The ammo was a good tip.
One of the best gun tubers. Wouldn’t be surprised if you don’t get a call to collab with demo, Kentucky or AK guy soon. Great vids as always!
Great video, as always, brother. I'm loving the cowboy stuff. 🤠
Thank you!
Keep doing the cowboy stuff ,cool to see someone doing something a little different 😊 try out maybe a 44/40?
Thank you for another great video! I love this thme!
I would love to see what a black powder revolver loaded with a 36 caliber round ball do for damage on a torso or in ballistic gel.
Thoroughly enjoyed it!
Thank you for the video! ☺♥ and keep the mustache brother looks great!☺
Good video. Liked the single action!
I love my SW 357 mag! Great video❤
love you man keep it up
Love the the stache ---- keep it......................
That was insane damage, nice one, cheers buddy
Awesome video bro!
Excellent video. Honest and fact proven. Thanks and a great weekend 🙂👍
Nice stache, great hoodie, awesome gun! Got a nice trifecta goin on.
Awesome video brother! Rock that stache!
I swear this man made me so interested to learn about guns
I love my '68 'Hawk!
Only issue I have with mine is one of the cylinders has a small nick in it, which means spent casings can be hard to eject sometimes, but given that she's a 3'rd-generational farm gun I'd say she has fared quite nicely
Love that intro, that’s a nice revolver, thanks
At least it didn't over penatrate. Hollow point for the win. I'd like to see the 44 Magnum, though.
Definitely going to try the 44 mag!
My favorite handgun cartridge,a good median, powerful fast and manageable without being a hand cannon..i also am a fan of 10mm
Awesome video! Also, I think the stache looks good
Colt Python in the 2.5 inch barrel configuration is great fun...like riding a very angry dragon,,,great for home defense!
I have a S&W 686 4”. It is a little on the large side but I do carry it on occasion
Great job on the video. 357 cal is one of my favorite calibers. Stay with that caliber. Henry makes a beautiful 357caliber rifle I highly recommend it
Congratulations 🎉🎉

Carried a S&W model 19 6 shot 4" bbl in LE for years because the 125 grn hollow points had the highest "one shot" stopping power, even over the .44 mag. Switched to the Glock model 31 .357 SIG only because the mag held 15 rounds over 6 in the revolver. The magnum grips on the S&W are more controlling with 4" bbl. Great video!!
Those model 19 are nice. Biggest L frame I believe or was it the start of N frame?
I understand the need for better grips being a duty hand gun, but please tell me you switched back to the beautiful wood when you began carrying Glock?
I think pachmayr makes a wood rubber combo or rubber over wood pattern grip.
Holy Crap!!! That was awesome!!!!
Dude, that was GNARLY!!!
what would be cool is testing a ballistic head with a titanium plate to see if it stops bullets.
Chop Top approves.
😂 👍
That round worked exactly how it is supposed to.
I'm loving the cowboy guns videos! You need a good felt cowboy hat, much warmer, plus it's a major cowboy violation of hat etiquette to wear your straw hat in the winter lol. Also, HUGE GIANT MEGA props for wearing a good looking hat to begin with. It's hard to watch people who go buy some goofy truck stop cowboy hat whenever they make videos dealing with "cowboy" subject matter.
Perfect result. I own a .357 Ruger Blackhawk and I think it's the best looking gun around. It's also so much fun to shoot.
I love your channel! What's your all time favorite gun to shoot?
I just bought a single shot handgun in .357 to go with my Henry lever action. 44mag. Both will go great on the trail rides. Oh also first time watcher. Great video! I subscribed to Channel!
Single shot, or Single action?
Awesome hoodie man
.357 is my all time favorite and the primary reason I love revolvers. Carry an S&W 327 everyday
The expansion of the skull was amazing....
I have that exact gun,7.5" barrel, shoots cast bullets great!
Nice, nothing quite like a good ol' wheelie gat 🤠🇺🇲
As i mentioned on your video with the .44 magnum ruger, I also have a .357 Magnum Blackhawk paired with a lever action rifle, also chambered for .357 magnum. 1 bullet, 2 guns.
I only shoot one handed. I've gotten used to it. I shoot an Uberti Walker Conversion and it's a beast, but has little recoil shooting .45's through it. Got it for my nightstand.
It hurts to see a single action revolver fired with both hands. Single action must be done like a badass
I use a 686-6 for home defense. It’s nice to be able to use 38+p federal punch or hornady American gunner xtp’s and Remington HTP’s sjh 125 g. Good shooting.
Bro the mustache is fire 🔥
Great content my friend! Nothing says cowboy like a Whitney Walker! Up until the invention of the 357 mag ,I believe it was the most powerful production handgun.I' ve shatter 12 inch concrete blocks with round balls in front of 55 grs of 3 f black powder. Quite impressive. Be safe and God bless!
How about .357 vs .44 vs 45 lc in revolver and lever action? Those are the 3 most popular revolver calibers.
cool gun, cool hoodie, cool range, and certainly a cool stash lol. IDEA perhaps a video comparing 38 spl, 357 mag, and 357 sig. just a thought since you haven't done a video on 357 before, and your doing a cowboy gun series, why not do a video comparing some calibers?
Yeehaw! Man I'd love to have that piece!
.357 magnum cartridge is 89 years old and I still carry my 43 year old SW Model 19 6” nickel revolver when ever I can in the 4:00 position when I wear my shirt untucked! Good cartridge, good video, keep them coming!
My first handgun was a 357 Blackhawk, but mine was blued. It was the only handgun I wanted or needed until I moved to a city.
Mustache and hat look good on ya! Keep rockin it
You were absolutely right the first time when you said it. It's a little spicy, but it's not that bad.
Holy mosses that slow-mo on the dome was insane 😳
That hoodie is very cool my man
Do you have a .44 mag? If so, do you have the ability to reload .44 mag? If the answer is yes to both of these questions, then would you be interested in receiving some bullets, as components, to reload and test?
I cast a 245-250, depending on lead alloy, grain HP that is quite impressive on 4 legged critters critters. May make for some dramatic results on a ballistic head.
If or when you do 45 colt, use the historical black powder load. Its 40 grains of 3f black powder under a 250-255 grain bullet
Cool video 👍
Ohhh thanks for this new video!!!! 💀👍
I love .357mag. In a full-size steel revolver it has enough blast to make it fun without being punishing. It’s also nice that you can shoot the tame .38 special.
Maybe build a (few) small little bar scene with bottles, glasses, tables and such, and see which cowboy toy can destroy the most the quickest
I just bought my first revolver I got the S&S 686 plus Deluxe 6 inch I absolutely love the that gun
I have one and love it. Did a "first shots" video with it. It a convertible, came with a 9mm cylinder too. Try Buffalo Bore ammo. Way hot.
Love your videos bro ❤
Thank you
I recently purchased a Colt Python six inch .357 magnum and it is my absolutely favorite gun of all-time. I like it so much I am thinking about buying a 3 inch version and using it as a conceal carry. By the way in when sighting in the gun at 125 yards in a gun brace, it hit center mass and I was absolutely blown away.
A great video.
If you can get your hands on a pump-action shotgun from the Wild West times you should use that in one of your Wild West cowboy gun videos
Absolutely sick! Great revolver! I love 357 magnum! Love the powerful feel and kick! It's part of the experience! I feel a 357 revolver is one of the most versatile guns you can get cause they function great and you can shoot all the 38 special stuff all the way up to really hot 357 loads! I have a Smith & Wesson 686 with w 6' inch barrel, and man, that thing is glorious! Very smooth! Good stuff, man! 😁👍🏻
Hi, I bought a brand new Smith & Wesson 686 with 6 inch barrel from a gun store or chain and I swear the gun does not look new. Any chance I got duped!?! there’s swirls and smudging in the stainless steel body, etc. etc. are these just normal imperfections that happened on the assembly line with this gun?
@@generationofbmx so the finish? I think factory defects are very possible. Yeah, your comment made me curious so I check mine too and it has some lines and swirls on the finish I never really payed attention to. After doing some research, its common with new guns and finishes with S&W.
It seems like it depends on the finish in the factory, and the lines and swirls happen with the brushed stainless finish. There's a matte and shiny finish too from what I've read. It seems it's kinda hard to get rid of as it's kinda scraped on metal, but I heard a lot of heavy polishing can help it.
Interesting stuff. I noticed the swirls of the finish, but my gun still shoots nice and everything. I think you got a new revolver, but the finish is probably that brushed finish. Hope you enjoy your revolver regardless though! 😅👍🏻
@@optiTHOMAS yeah thanks for chiming in. I’ve had others tell me not to really worry about it too and that a store could get in serious trouble if they find some way to try and sell you a used gun as new. 🙂
I have an old unmodified 3 screw Ruger Blackhawk in .357 mag I love that pistol unfortunately by not sending it in for the recall it's a 5 shot but it's still my favorite pistol
A good chunky gun soaks up a lot. I like my GP100
these videos are amazing. I also like the mustache, you should keep it!
Woohoo!!. My favorite cartridge.
The moustache or the brush of love 😁😂
Today we test calibers on targets and other analogues, in the Western days they were tested on people 30.30 and other old calibers worked
They may be long and skinny, but there is a LOT of power pushing that small projectile.
When you get to a 45lc, you should use either a 200gn LRFP or a 255gn SWC.
If I'm honest I love your mustache
Wild Wild West‼️
I have a new black hawk ruger/ also a stainless steel security six . Both in 357-. Great guns, plus you can shoot 38 through them. My preference in big caliber handguns
"Therr ain't enough room 'round here for the two-n-us!"
"But I'm just a head!"
"Nonsense!"
Loved the watermelon!!!
