    Your First S&W

    My first S&W was a 40 caliber model 410S. My first S&W revolver was a 6.5" 629-6. :cool:

    What models of the S&W 500 were available in black?

    The only ones I'm aware of are the Bone Collector and the John Ross 5". However, I've seen 6.5" PC guns pop up here and there that are black. Does anyone know (or have a list) of models that were available in the black finish for this gun? Thanks.

    What is your experience with the 6.5" as opposed to the 8 3/8" and 4"? I'm eyeing a 6.5", but I can't find anyone in my city that has one to look at. The 8 3/8" seems too barrel-heavy, and I'm worried about recoil on the 4". I've held both of those. Just trying to get some feedback on the...

    The S&W GOV

    I've come to the conclusion that anyone saying "no punch" doesn't really know much about the gun OR the ammo it fires. If they do, then they're deducing really skewed and incorrect conclusions. Everything I've seen - WITH THE RIGHT AMMO - makes this gun really impressive.
