While skimming through my Facebook feed, I saw a post from the I'm with Roscoe group. The group member shared a picture that included this beauty:

It looked so cool that I thought this Taurus 692 with additional cylinder and crane was photoshopped. Nope, it's real. While looking up information, I discovered an article on Personal Defense World about taking the Gunsite Academy revolver course with the Taurus 692 ported edition.

Bell only made one modification to the gun - a Hogue Monogrip ...

and he used Black Hills .357 Cowboy Action Shooting cartridges.
Yes, the article is about the revolver, but William Bell's write up about the course includes how the course covers "Cooper's Color Code" and "interrupting the 'OODA Loop' of an attacker." Being reminded of Col. Cooper's Color Code and being introduced concept of effecting someone else's OODA Loop as a tactic is really intriguing.
