This thing is the largest most powerful handgun made, and can be used to take anything up to grizzly, cape buffalo and even elephant. The gun is a 5 shooter, and the barrel is 8 3/4" and has a compensator.
I took it in trade from a guy who bought it and put about 6 rounds through it before he decided it was too powerful for him. It is "as new" in the box, and has the balance of the box of Corbon 275 grain hollowpoints. I have shot one before (not this one) and the recoil was "stout" but not really that bad.
This is a size comparison between the .500 Magnum and the .44 Magnum. (not the actual gun, but looks identical)
And here is the difference in ammo size:

I'm looking for $1,000 for this gun, case, and ammo, but will also entertain trades. Tops on my list are high end Kimbers and Sigs, a Colt Magnum Carry, a carbon framed Bushmaster, but I am also interested in motorcycles, scooters (no Chinese, only Honda, Yamaha, Aprillia, or Piaggio/Vespa), cars, equipment, etc....
I will listen to any trade or trade plus cash, so don't be afraid to run something by me.

I'm in Titusville Florida, near the Space Center.
Thanks,
