So, which is the better *defensive* handgun, a S&W .357 mag fitted with
laser grips or a Glock auto?

.357 mag revolver or a .44 mag revolver.

Simple, effective and never break down.

shots or only five? And to tell you the truth, I forgot myself in all
this excitement. But bein' this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful
handgun in the world, and it'll blow your head clean off, you could ask
yourself a question. Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?"

Great line, great delivery, but inaccurate. The .454 Casull, for one. was
and is "more powerful."

Nope. Model 500 Smith and Wesson:

Nope. There are many pistols that fire high powered rifle ammo. T/C
makes the Contender as an example. All impractical for defense. The S&W
Model 500 came up in this thread because Krause was trying to appear
knowledgeable and did a quick internet search.
