The only thing I can figure out is a Taurus Judge Pistol, shoots both .410 shot shells or .44 mags. Great handgun btw too bad I lost mine in a tragic boating accident. Minor correction: The Taurus Judge shoots .410 shot or .45 long Colt. A shotgun/revolver had to be either the Judge or one of them there fully-automatic Glock AK-47 pump action assault revolvers that journalists are always writing about.

He and friends must have been toking.
They said he shot the gun 3 times but only the third time was there a blast??????
I’ve heard a blast everytime I’ve shot a gun.

When playing Russian roulette with one bullet in a six chamber gun, if you spin the cylinder before each shot:
The chance of dying by the third shot is 91/216 which is about 42%.
You have a more than 1/3 chance of still being alive after 6 shots.

Really
I smoked weed nearly two decades
Never once had the impulse to play such a stupid ....game is a poor choice of words
I did see someone pick up a Smith model 19 once and put one bullet in and spin it and pull the trigger....and survive
And he was drunk....not stoned

I thought it was .410 shotgun shell or 45 Colt. My Governor does those two plus 45 Autos in moon clips.

it is crude and cruel

Cruisito Leiba, 17, suffered a single gunshot wound to the head, said the Pueblo County Coroner's office. Yeah. I'm guessing victims of Russian Roulette rarely sustain more than a single gunshot wound to the head.

'He shot it once, nothing happened,' his friend Selena Aguila told CBS Denver. 'He shot it twice, nothing happened. Then, he shot it the third time and we heard a big bang.' You sure that's not called Polish Roulette?

Yeah, not very bright. Usually I have sympathy for someone who dies in a tragic accident, but this was of his own making. So, I’ll save my sympathy for another day.
To: rikkir
This reminds me of an old ‘National Lampoon’ magazine cover.
Where six uniformed Russian plutocrats, five dead are playing Russian Roulette around a large round polished oak table. As the last Czarist stands and puts the automatic pistol’s muzzle to his temple.

Could also be a Rossi Circuit Judge, made by the same company, which is a revolver rifle that shoots 45LC bullets and .410 shotgun shells.
To: rikkir
I was never very good at figuring the odds on stuff but I dont think a solo game will leave many winners.

Not exactly brain surgeons are they? One of them was, the dead one -- kinda.

Nope, it stays constant at 5:1. Previous rolls do not affect the outcome of the current roll. They are independent events.
