If I could get ammo at a decent price, I'd love to get one. "If Gun Control worked, Chicago would look like Mayberry, not Thunderdome" - Cam Edwards | |||

| Ignored facts still exist |
So this shoots the .44 Remington Magnum ammo? The same rimmed ammo as the Model-29 shoots? How does it do with less powered (powdered  ) loads like .44 special? Cycles ok?. | |||

.44 AMP. Proprietary cartridge. | |||

Initially the brass was formed by trimming down a .308 NATO case. I guess Starline is producing brass now. I understand there was also .357 AMP, .44 AMP necked down. I am actually quite intrigued to see if this cartridge would also make a comeback. | |||

I’ll pass as I don’t need to wander down that particular rabbit hole. However, I will eagerly watch any decent videos of people shooting one. | |||

Indeed. As well as the .41 JMP (Jurras Mag Pistol) named after Lee E. Jurras of Super Vel fame. | |||

Jeez guys didn't you see Beverly Hills Cop II? Every good Detroit street cops knows a .308 case cut down for the Automag when he gets shot at with one in a driveby outside a strip club. Sheesh. | |||

Damn, am I the only one that was hoping this was another Uber-generous 12131 karma? What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???  | |||

Yes I have one on order. 6.5” polished finish with wood grips. | |||

By all rights I should want one. I am an absolute sucker for 70-80’s “action movie guns.” Might change my tune if I get one in my hands. | |||
|
NOT compromised! |
Gotta admit, there is something uber cool about that gun... | |||

Buddy of mines dad had a pair of sequential serial numbered Wildey’s back in the early 90’s. He was liquidating his stash and had us sell them at a gun show. It’s sad to think of now.. I had no idea what they were at the time. "Attack life, it's going to kill you anyway." Steve McQueen... | |||

Talked me into it-just put one on order. I am so easily influenced. | |||

What is the street price? | |||

There is no "street price" that I saw, as I didn't see anything available other than directly from Auto Mag: https://automag.com/ I ordered the "Classic Edition 8.5" for $3795, and paid $275 for the high polish finish, so $4070. And then I found some ammo on Gunbroker for a little over $2/round. All in all, an expensive night to be browsing Sigforum. | |||

You are right... they looked much more like a 1911 than a Ruger Mk. Was as a gathering this past Fall where a guy had one... I was drooling My Native American Name: "Runs with Scissors" | |||

I understand. In the mid-1980's, a buddy of mine had an Automag IV chambered in .45 Winchester Magnum. Of his three .45 Win Mag pistols - Automag, L.A.R. Grizzly & Wildey - the Automag was my favorite. | |||

It's a sexy cool gun, but I realized a few years ago that I've had my .44 magnum itch scratched enough over the years by a succession of Model 29 variants. My .45 Colts are enough revolver for me anymore, and a .45ACP is all the pistol I need. | |||
