Still unfired, S&W 500 Magnum ES Model with all the Survival Kit goodness. Bone stock, no mods; Got 100rds on the way for it.

and then this came along on Monday;

S&W Model 29-10 44 MAGNUM
3" BBL
MagnaPort Customized
Forcing Cone
Quad Trapezoid porting
Target Crown
Numbered Cylinders/Timing
Trigger Job
Wolff Springs
Custom Gunkote Finish OD

The "Bounty Hunter" is a matte finished 3" M29-10 with Pachmayer grips at birth. This one is colored to match a couple Wilson guns he had. Gunkote is a tough baked on enamel, also have an early Chinese preban AK47 in black gunkote, jillion rounds of corrosive through it over the last 9 yrs, finish is solid.

The trigger Magnaport did on this is simply the best revolver DA I have felt in 20+ years of gunwhoring, perfection.

If you have to have an illness, big revolver disease is THE one to have. Don

I'll bet you could start forest fires shooting that big 500 during the dry season........

Now you have to learn two-handed simultaneous shooting of both of them at the same time.

The 500 is as much flame thrower as handgun and you have to be careful firing into a hillside lest the Department of Natural Resources dings you for prospecting by digging without a permit . . . .
