What's your most fearsome/intimidating handgun?

yeah, I know, don't count on intimidating anyone. But, this one is pretty fearsome, 2ea .61cal 325gr ball doing between 900-1000fps,would do a LOT better from longer barrels, and still not a max load as it seems entirely adequate for the purpose.

Left loaded, it rides a lot with me, normally the hammers are down on some thick rolled leather pills between hammers and caps.

Always goes boom. Easy (for a BP gun) to clean. Have also the detachable shoulder stock and belt holster, neither ever used, but makes a nice set.

Have not been able to find it lately on the Pedersoli sight, only the cartridge versions, but it might only be hiding from me. Surely hope they have not dropped production.
