Default WTS 460 ES Magnum with Collectors Survival Kit/Bear Kit

This is a 460 Magnum with snub nosed barrel. It not only shoots the massive bear killer 460 magnum cartridge, but it can also shoot the 454 Casull and 45 Long Colt shells as well!! This is a very rare kit in the fact that it is intact and none of the survival items were used. Also S&W no longer makes the gun with this short of a barrel and they stopped making the survival/bear kit too.

The .460 is the highest velocity revolver cartridge in the world, firing bullets at 2330 ft/s (710 m/s) and muzzle energy at ~2400 lbs. I'm throwing in a free bush holster that I bought when I got the gun. This gun is only gonna increase in value over the years due to its rarity.

Description of everything in the box: Model 460ES - Emergency Survival Tool Kit contains: Smith & Wesson Model 460es, 2 3/4" Barrel with Bright Yellow Hogue recoil reducing grip, Waterproof Yellow Storm Case, Blast Match Firestarter and WetFire tender, Saber Cut Saw with fabric sheath and easy hand grips, Jet Scream whistle, Star Flash signal mirror, Polaris professional compass, Two MPI Mylar Space Emergency Blankets, Smith & Wesson Extreme Ops Liner Lock Folding combat Knife with Black Sheath, "Bear Attacks of the Century - True Stories of Courage and Survival" book by Larry Mueller and Marguerite Reiss. All packaged in a rugged, watertight, airtight, pelican hard case with pressure relief valve. ALL paperwork from the factory is inside the box, including the owners manual, test cartridge from S&W, and more.

We fired exactly 7 bullets through the gun in 2009 at our campsite while we were on a bear hunt in Alaska. That is also when the gun was purchased back in 2009. I know the exact amount cause I only bought 15 rounds of ammo with the gun and I have 8 rounds left. I'll send them with the gun if you want, they cost $3 a round up in Alaska, so consider it a $24 bonus along with the free bush holster I'm giving with the gun. The holster cost me another 25 bucks, but again consider it a bonus to the new owner.

$2200 firm and I have it listed on a couple other sites as well.
