    Starting a 44 magnum collection.

    So an odd thing happened when shopping around and considering buying a 500 s&w mag. I decided they are too big and heavy for what i want and the ammo is crazy expensive unless you reload which i do not. I decided to buy a 44 magnum instead. With that said i already have a 3" 629-6 Talo edition...

    629 S&W Talo edition .44 mag incoming.

    When i get it and shoot it i will report back with my honest opinion on how it performs and recoils. But recoil is very subjective. When i bought my S&W PC 327 model. 357 Mag Scandium folks and a couple friends said that would recoil a lot. So when i first fired it i was half expecting for it to...

    629 S&W Talo edition .44 mag incoming.

    Nope.. I have Long barrel revolvers as well. Just have grown to love the short barrels for the ease of carry and compact ability. Thats a beautiful 629 Classic for sure..

    629 S&W Talo edition .44 mag incoming.

    Just ordered the 629 Talo edition. 44 mag 3 inch barrel. Going to install a mini red dot on it and use it for close range Whitetail hunting and carry. Ive been really big on the short compact revolvers the last couple years. There so versitle compared to the big long barrel beasts.

    4" S&W 500mag vs Desert Eagle 50AE Auto?

    Ended up going a slightly different route. Ordered a Smith and Wesson 629 Talo edition .44 Magnum 3" barrel. It will serve a similar purpose as the 500 S and W would have as far as close range hunting but a bit more practical and affordable ammo. Probably fit it with a mini red dot type sight.

    S&W 500-Negative Thoughts

    Nice Desert Eagle 50... Im thinking of buying one. Which gun do you like better that or the 4" 500 in the pic??. Or is that a 460xvr??Im caught between the 2 for purchase..

    4" S&W 500mag vs Desert Eagle 50AE Auto?

    I agree with everything you stated. And you are right a slower .50 cal especially with a good expanding bullet will do a lot more damage then a higher velocity hard cast. Kinda like when using my 7mm mag for deer the 175grn bullet passes right through leaving minimal damage where the lighter...

    4" S&W 500mag vs Desert Eagle 50AE Auto?

    My problem is I'm a big bore hand gun addict. I just love them. I already have a 454 casull which is more then enough gun for anything that walks. I use to have the 8" 500 but sold it and regret selling it so I want another. And the .50 ae DE peeks my interest as well. It would be cool to have a...

    4" S&W 500mag vs Desert Eagle 50AE Auto?

    If I would ever get a DE I would definitely take advantage of the top rail system and install a red dot. I think they were built for a scope or red dot. Probably why they don't bother even putting adjustable sights on them. I agree a 440gr HSM Bear load out of a 500 would take pretty much...

    4" S&W 500mag vs Desert Eagle 50AE Auto?

    Makes wonder. If I did get the 4" .500 smith! What would do more damage on lets say a black bear or whitetail deer my 6.5 inch Ruger Super Black Hawk Bisley 454 or the 4" 500 Smith and Wesson? ummm...

    4" S&W 500mag vs Desert Eagle 50AE Auto?

    Basically I already know the 500 is more powerful. So I wasn't just comparing the 2 rounds based on there ability I was comparing how much of a difference regular store bought ammo (since I don't reload) would compare out of those 2 particular guns the 4" 500 vs the 6" 50ae. because I know the...
