Looks like an 8 3/8" barrel, maybe on a model 27 probably firing .38. Gun built to withstand 357mag, insufficient powder, or no powder in several rounds, just the power of the primer to lodge the bullets in the barrel?

Here's what would normally happen.








I'll bet this was REALLY shocking for someone

Thank you MBATarga. Steve Vandecar was my first Porsche racing instructor, 20 years ago last December. We became good friends over those years. He's a huge loss to the Porsche racing community.



Our weekend match group. Vande on the far left.
