Of course the commemorative firearms companies released the 1911 “45” that commemorated trumps presidency. Well now that he’s also a “47”, I think we need a 45–47.
The question is, whether it should be a rifle cartridge or a pistol cartridge, if the ‘dash’ should mean it’s defined like a black powder cartridge in terms of caliber and grains of black powder, or what…
It should also be something that can be built into a variety of firearms. Maybe something that a firearm invented in the year of his birth could be chambered in. Definitely needs to be an American design.
Normally, I really have gotten to the point where I don’t like new cartridges because the old ones I have cover all the needs but since I’m one of those weirdos who thinks Trump is the best president since George Washington, I would go for a commemorative firearm and cartridge, even if I just got it as a collector item…!

Re: New Wildcat cartridge I think we need…
how about a 1911 .470, with a gentle scale up, all heat treated with a 100001 psi chamber pressure, 'cause 47 can handle the pressure . . .AJMD429 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15, 2025 5:25 pm .

A pair of 1911's, one in 45 acp and one in "47 automatic" would be interesting.

Bet Colonel Cooper would be down with this. 

Re: New Wildcat cartridge I think we need…
I always thought something in .375 would be nice , 38 special length case for a revolver 165 - 200 gr bullets.
Or a .375 acp in a 45 acp length case with 180 gr bullets.

Isn't the .480 Achilles close enough for a specially renamed commercial run?
