sorry jim,too technically thick to do photos.quite a few british howdah pistols were built using side by side breech opening shotgun actions,made for some pretty looking pistols.speaking of recoil there was an email going about a while back with video footage of some poor simple soul firing a pistol chambered in 600 nitro express[i think].as you can expect the thing threw itself out of his hand nearly wrenching his arm off in the process.i dont know if it was a set up or not but it made pretty dramatic viewing.. cheers..greasemonkey
