Default I knew a "500" S&W was good for something...

"I suppose if you are a "collector" of S&W revolvers, it is one you might

shooters firing it off at various targets, and it doesn't seem as if it
were much fun to shoot...really heavy revolver, lots of recoil and
muzzle flip, loud, expensive ammo. We don't have much "grizz" around
here, and if I really needed a revolver for "defense," I think my .357
MAG is more than sufficient.

$3 a pop for ammo? Now *that* is a giggle."




You would need a bloated 'Uncle Sam' pension to afford that ammo.


Your Canadian pension wouldn't cover it, donne'?
