Hello !
I hope the subject has not been posted before (there are so many pages !!)
I like to read mystery novels but I never know how to say the names of guns, for example : 357 magnum, colt45 ...
Thank you for your help !

Hello,
You can ask Audrey here
Link
She says 'three hundred and fifty-seven Magnum' and 'Colt forty-five'.
I suppose both pronunciations are right for 357 Magnum, but I prefer np's because it's shorter.

Hello
You can ask Audrey, but she's just a dumb broad, isn't she? She just speaks things literally. I've never heard 357 magnum spoken as three hundred and fifty-seven magnum! LOL Hey, laddie, bring me my colt dot forty-five. If you can't find it, give me my point three hundred and fifty-seven Magnum!
