Clark Customs I have one and I love it. Its a handful for sure. Georgia Arms makes reasonably priced ammo for them too. Been very reliable with the correct springs and mags. Mags were a challenge. CM 10 rd mags work flawlessly. |

IDK how I haven't heard of this but I'm so building one of these on one of my spare frames. Pretty cool you can shoot 45ACP out of them with a spring swap at the most. |
Current conventional wisdom says that all pistol calibers do about the same thing against humans in a self defense situation, I'll bet the .460 rowland would be an exception to that rule.  That would make one hell of an EDC gun. 
As an exercise in becoming better with my gun I was using 1 handgun for carry and also all of my hunting for about 10 years. I looked really hard at the .460 rowland for a couple seconds before deciding I was getting a little ridiculous. I ended up going with a 10mm for my purposes. |

If you only want to keep one bullet size around the Rowland makes sense. My son has a G21 and the Rowland would be a good idea for him as he wants to reload someday. |

Recoil? why is the vaunted .44 Mag not more popular? HINT: Recoil and follow up shot. |

It is NOT hyper-sonic enough to matter. Second shot? Recoil? why is the vaunted .44 Mag not more popular? HINT: Recoil and follow up shot. Yeah, it does jump a bit. |
