AMT hardballer wasn't it? Yes, picturesque on a darkish overcast morning in the covered firing shelter... Kind of like a CZ52 in 7.62 x 25...Quote:

I shoot my carbines regularly and use them for defense carbines. I can't see how "normal" civilian use would wear one out in the life time of any adult now living.Quote:

JimF, Say it killed your follow up shot?
I could see why, Believe I'd need a Welders mask/goggles for it.
Was/is the Auto Mag III pretty accurate ?
What would one expect to pay for a nice used one?
Hard to find?
Quality firearm ?
Ever any issues... feed, extract,.. etc ?
On a side note, I always had a entertaining evening when Cat fishing all night with a .357 magnum loaded with Blue Dot... blowing out Blue Haze Flash Donuts.
H110 in one of my .44 Mags and Power Pistol in 1911's also made for Fun Muzzle Flash... Then wonder why the fish weren't biting.
Speaking of Muzzle flash....
Was told today about a App for a smartphone called 'Lightning Catcher'. Was told it makes catching muzzle flash easy. He said it works for lightning too..... and is Free.
Anyone heard about this App?
Some complain about excess Flash and Fireball Blossums, I'm all for it. Reminds be of back in the day with your first dual exhaust and glass packs. And why Harley's don't have really quite mufflers!
S&W 627 .357 Magnum

Charlie,
I bought two, new, in 1992. The cost was $549. I think they stopped making them around 2000 or 2001. I sold my unfired example for $800 last year.
My used one will go to my son. Used maybe $450-$500 would be a reasonable price to me. But scarce market items sometimes get a premium. They are fun, but only average build quality. Accuracy on mine is between 3"-5" at 25 to 40 yards taking my time. Rapid fire it's all over the place as I can't get a sight picture through the flash but still bang away.
My Ruger three screw Blackhawk .30 carbine shoots a lot better. Even with the flash.
Collecting carbines I just had to have them. And don't regret it.
Charlie, Are you trying to tell us that this is you? Can't be you because I don't see a wheel chair anywhere!!!
