Who's to say what kind of gun in the photo?

Drawn fucking ;)
And if in fact - it seems that drew with Pfeifer Zeliska is one of the most powerful revolver under caliber .600 Nitro Express.
Knock an elephant easily. When shooting, you can get a concussion ;)
Spoileralert leader in power among revolvers can be considered the Pfeifer Zeliska. It was made by a small company Pfeifer in 1955 by the order and sketches of the Austrian gun enthusiast Adolf Zeliska (Zeliska) under the powerful cartridge .600 Nitro Express. Munition appeared in Britain in the late NINETEENTH century for hunting elephants and rhinos, hence the nickname — "elephant bullet" (elephant cartridge). Almost a hundred years .600 Nitro Express remained the most powerful hunting weapon, its muzzle energy exceeds 10 thousand joules.
The reference States that one shot is enough to kill an elephant or easily stop a charging lion. However, the arrows sometimes get a concussion — after a shot could start bleeding from the ears or nose.
Typically, such cartridges are charged a pricey one - and two-barrel fittings, firing from a distance of up to 100 meters. The price of one cartridge is around $ 100.
The first Zeliska revolvers were no devices to reduce recoil. Shoot it with hand is almost impossible — arrow casts returns. It is known that a number of these revolvers released by individual orders.
The info on this gun, the network is full. Especially in spectrum. The revolver is not quite a serial, so to speak. Variations there are.

In my opinion more like a normal S&W .357
Only the trunk is disproportionately thick for the drum. (Figure still).
About Zeliska information and really full. Yes, but it's nonsense solid! The recoil of this cartridge really serious, but no garbage hand, and the more concussion and can not be!

Disproportionate to Zeliska against the arrow rather.
About concussion - shot near the ear of even the less powerful weapons may well lead to concussions and (individually) to more dire consequences.
But in any case, I personally from Zeliska shot and in the hands not kept, so the judge may purely subjective ;)
My version of identification of the barrel have been proposed. Waiting for more options. Already two have. ;)

Shot near the ear, certainly not a rush and can the eardrum to break, but not a concussion!
It needs a completely different power.
And the trunk in the picture theme is not similar to Zeliska. The layout is long and the chamber is quite different.

There is a charge that not only tear the ear when fired close to the ear. I'm talking about .600 Nitro Express. 10000 j - this is not a joke.
Have not experienced the shooter, the weapon could just fly from your hands, break the bones with such foolishness. Yes, a lot of what can happen. Here and from guns of smaller caliber get hurt, and there slonoboynaya cartridge ;) On YouTube there is a funny VIDOS on this subject, by the way, can be assessed.

Agree, similar.

Yes, vidyuhi cool about it too much. But it is certainly adequate to judge from the position of the one who had to shoot any.
(Anyone not want)
10k joules there and there was not. This is nonsense. Cartridge DShK gives 14k. And he is much larger in size and weight.
S&W model 27 magnum (was in the game Call of Cthulhu and the film the Godfather in Luke)
