I've always wanted one of these purely for it's aesthetic value. Their trigger is close to 15lbs. Only holds 4 rounds, and it tears your hand up when it's fired. With all that said, when I saw this at the end of the movie 'Bad Boys' (1995) when the bad guy pulls it as a last ditch effort, and the camera zoomed and showed the 4 barrels, I fell in love. Well I finally located 1 for sale that the seller wasn't charging an arm and a leg, so I took a 6 hour road trip yesterday and picked it up. My non-gun friends called me crazy, wondering why I'd go to such lengths to acquire a firearm which is honestly more of a novelty gun, being that there are far cheaper and more modern firearms that out-class it. I know that you guys and gals can understand that when you want something, you don't need an explanation, you just want it.

Very interisting looking gun.
It's one of those guns you would just buy to have.

Congrats, Adam. This one looks to be in great condition. I've been looking for one of these for the past while; came close a couple of times. Something just was not always right. Enjoy this, for sure and I agree; nice to have. :)

Congratulations on your find.
I bought two of these when they first came out 30+ years ago. One for me and one for my father in law.
I shot mine once, when I was young and full of testosterone. And that was enough.
It is now gaurding the back entrance of one of my safes.
