The .454 Casull predated the first "Dirty Harry" movie by approximately 12 years, so the .44 magnum wasn't the most powerful handgun in the world when Clint uttered that famous line.

Today, I picked up a Loaded Springer in 9x19. There were many guns from my "must have" list. However, this one spoke to me.
