Pretty cool. The only pleasant experience I ever had shooting .44 mag was out of a desert eagle. This would probably be similar

I've got a Ruger Deerfield with one 10-round magazine of 44 mag goodness. I'll stick to that to scratch that itch.

Now if they would just start making them in M1 carbine again.... I'd be happy.

The AMT Automag III, chambered in M1 Carbine, bore no resemblance to the original Auto Mag Corporation .44 Auto Mag pistol. In fact, all of the later AMT Automag incarnations loosely resembled large 1911 style pistols, trading only on the Auto Mag name. Lacking the allure of the original pistol, it is unlikely any of the later models will see a rerelease.

That is awesome.
Looks like I'm going to be chained in the back yard a lot longer than I thought.

Starline is already offering brass, even if it is on backorder.

The price, while not cheap, is amazingly reasonable. I thought it would cost at least twice what it is listed at.

The Auto Mag and the Wildly are two guns I longed for as a kid. Clint Eastwood and Charles Bronson.

I always loved the look and mystique of the Auto Mag .44!!! Nothing else really like it.....

Beat me to it.
I was going to say only if I can get the fingerprint removing model.

I’ve been following this since the announcement of re-release. I get email updates from the company, but couldn’t bring myself to drop that much coin on one. Very cool re-engineering they’ve done to fix the lockup problems during firing that the originals had.

Sweet!
The price isn't that bad for what is being offered.
For now I'll have to stick with my pre-2010 Desert Eagles and Remys.

I had the Wildey in .45WINMAG and it cracked the bolt cage. They repaired the gun and I sold it as I didn't like the way the action worked.
The Desert Eagle is a far superior weapon. Now if the Automag is chambered in something palatable, I will consider one with the long barrel.
