Again, if you have muzzle blasts going off all day, what in the hell will a spark do? Have you ever shot a gun in the dark? Flame shoots out of the barrel several inches for a .22 rifle and a handgun will shoot a blast of flame worthy of a 4th of July celebration. A short .357 will shoot a dragon's breath of flame 5 feet or more. I have a Ruger Blackhawk in .30 carbine. Fireball is an apt descriptor.  |

My dad said, if you missed, the animal would still be cooked. Friend wanted it, so I traded for a Colt Lawman 357. |
