The sound of a .44 going off just pleases me in a way I just can't explain.

That 444 is a hand cannon!! It's always a great way to start the day, watching Mr. Hickok45. Thank you sir. Have a great day my fellow 2ndA supporters. 🇺🇸

Just for the knowledge of all the great gun lovers and law abiding citizenz on this channel: Despite being a Brazillian company, TAURUS is openly defending civil disarmament here in Brazil. In a letter signed by the president of TAURUS, by his own hand, he suggests several measures for "the real control of weapons and ammunition", among them: 1) restrict the importation of weapons; 2) the end of carry permits; 3) maximum limit of FOUR guns per person, being no more than ONE gun per home. 4) restrict ammunition sells (regular citizens can only buy 50 bullets for each gun, PER YEAR). Yes, it's fifty, I didn't mistype. It seems counterintuitive for an arms industry to be taking a stand in favor of civil disarmament. But TAURUS does this to be aligned with the new government's ideals and benefit from it, possibly exchanging the monopoly on the supply of weapons and ammunition in Brazil, for the support for civil disarmament. And they easily get away with it, by being our ONLY gun industry here in Brazil. Imported equipment is much more expensive here, so most citizens just can't afford buying from other companies (like S&W, Glock, SIG, Beretta). Just to illustrate: a glock g43x costs the equivalent of U$2,000 here in Brazil. Many can't pay this ammount of money for a gun. Now you see why TAURUS can take a stand like this and still get away with it. Help us take this knowledge to all the great gun lovers and law abiding citizenz on US soil too. If you can afford other brands, DON'T BUY TAURUS 🚫🐂🚫

Did u find a big iron?

It's soo cool to see the angle where he's got the gun pointing at the target. the moment where you see the muzzle stop moving and half a second later boom, NAILED IT! It's like watching years of muscle memory and practice come together in a moment. poetry in motion.

Last week I purchased a Glock 27(after watching your reviews of course)...I finally found time today to take it to my local range. I told the range master I hadn't fired a handgun in almost 7 years, she just chuckled an encouraged me to have fun...After I'd finished and went to pay my range fees, she asked to see my targets(which I kept to post on facebook)...she chuckled and said, "You're no Hickok45, but you did quite well for a seven year absence"...Range fee was $13.20, I gave her a $20 and told her to keep the change...We love ya here in Western NC!

This is my favorite person to come to when I want to find out about a firearm he gets straight to the point no bulshit at the beginning of his videos just him and the gun giving us information ❤

Hickok slung that big monster so accurate it's unreal this man is highly intelligent. I hate it for anyone or anything that disturbs this man property or anything else or his loved ones. My dad was in the navy on the USS Mc.cloy DE 1038 he taught me to shoot a little but I wish I could shoot with ol Hickok. 😮

i like how you can see the bullet going down range when the camera is zoomed in

Unbelievable the power of the 44 magnum. You shoot that well. Thanks for the video.

Funny thing is the boom and buck of the 44 magnum is so exciting it can easily make you forget if you've fired five or fired six.

Over the many years I don’t think I’ve ever seen you cover the 22 Hornet round. Sure would be cool to see you get ahold of a Raging Hornet!

I actually thought it was going to be chambered in 444 Marlin.

Wow last time I watched one of your videos you were at 2 mil subscribers now 7.2 mil, your probably pushing seven figures off you tube now.👍

😍That is my dream gun and I want one more than you could imagine. After much internal debate over a couple years, I decided to save up for it rather than the Raging Hunter and S&W 629 Competitor a few months ago. Everything in the world is falling apart and it keeps pushing things back, but I’ll get one…hopefully sooner rather than later. What a sexy beast!🤤

Big Game Hunts are my absolute favorite. Thank you for providing great content.

So cool to see the bullets when you zoom in

i used to have a Taurus tracker, 4" ported barrel in .44 mag. was insane to shoot at night, kicked a huge V flame out of the ports and a massive fireball out of that 4" barrel.

I have the 4", titanium version of this hand cannon. It's freakishly light. Very accurate but punishing recoil. My S&W 629 has far less recoil. I hunt white tail deer with both. The Taurus is more comfortable to carry all day. Thank you for the video.

-How many times do you shot in your life? This man: -Yes.

Thank you

I love mine. One of the more accurate .44's i've owned. And not too bad of a single and double action too.

So far the only .44 Magnum I've shot is a friend's Ruger Super Redhawk, and it's hella fun! The recoil always makes me think twice before the next shot...definitely not something to rapid fire unless you enjoy pain. lol

I carry a model 629 in a shoulder rig when I’m hiking around our ranch in Idaho. Got a great deal when I bought it. It sports a 4” barrel and is comfortable enough for my old hands. I had a Raging Hunter a couple years ago with a 6” barrel and didn’t like it as much.

44 mag is fun to shoot. I had the Taurus model 44 with 8 5/8 barrel. Now currently own Cimarron Bad Boy saa and Rossi 92'. The Taurus was great but prefer the single action by little bit.

Excellent gun!

The Raging Hunter IS a Hunting handgun!

Just so relaxing 👍

I like my sbh 44 but I love Taurus revolvers. Only problem I ever had was my own fault

Excelente arma! Sou fã da Taurus. Infelizmente atiradores esportistas não podem mais fazer a aquisição. Meus parabéns pelo vídeo. Sempre assisto.

Raging Hunter is a better design. The aluminum shroud is a game changer.

Isn't it strange how you almost KNOW a shot is going to miss before you squeeze the trigger? I do it all the time. I can tell if I am off, so why do I pull the trigger? lol I suppose my little monkey brain needs confirmation of what I am seeing. Same with perfect hits. You know it's going to be a good shot before you send it. That whole scenario needs further explaining by someone who understands the human psyche.

Great work 😊
