Magnum Research BFR .450 Marlin Revolver with 10" Barrel and Bisley Grips

The Magnum Research BFR .450 Marlin revolver with 10" barrel is a hard-hitting single-action built for hunters who need serious stopping power at distance. Chambered in .450 Marlin—a rifle cartridge adapted to revolver use—this five-shot wheelgun delivers the kind of energy you want when hunting big game or just pushing the limits of what a revolver can do. The 10-inch barrel gives you velocity and sight radius that put this gun in a category of its own, and the brushed stainless finish handles field use without flinching.

Built on the legendary BFR frame, this revolver won't apologize for its power or its heft. At 4.7 pounds, it's substantial but pointable, and the Bisley grips are shaped specifically for the kind of shooting you'll do with a gun this potent. The factory black fixed front sight and adjustable rear give you a clean setup to dial in at the range, and the 3 to 4 pound trigger is tuned for a clean break. This isn't a carry gun—it's a specialized tool for hunters and shooters who've moved beyond conventional revolvers.

If you're hunting heavy cover, exploring backcountry where a rifle isn't practical, or you just want to experience what the biggest production revolver on the market can do, the BFR .450 Marlin is worth the investment. It's accurate, reliable, and unapologetically powerful.
