500 Magnum picture thread

[nate-dogg]

I couldn't find a picture thread for the 500 magnum, so I wanted to start one. If you have a 500 magnum and you love it, please post your pictures! I will start with my two 500 mags. Thanks for looking!

I'll play. This is a horrible pic but a lil' comparison shot next a model 60.

I'm in, if I can attach a pic.

X-series things that I like. I don't like image host sites, I never use them. If I can attach a pic of the X-series things that I like, here on this forum, I will have to become a contributor.

S&W .460, S&W .500, and two Acebeam X65vn.

And....the twins.

Well... You DID ask for it....

Recently acquired and shot. The big bore Ammo was really easy to handle while the other ammo was simply brutal. 20 rounds of each.

I’m becoming rather fond of the snubby 500 myself

The little one has a bigger bite on the hand that feeds it... it’s an AirLite 340

I've been considering trading my 4 inch for a 2 inch or 3 inch version. I like that the 2 shortest versions do not have the ports.

Bad photo?? I think you should be pleased with it.

I have the same model 500 but it's not polished like yours and has the factory grip. Love the gun. Don

Mine's an early one from 2003.

A friend made the bison luggage and buckskin stitched belt.

You can call it either a 2" or a 3" barrel as far as I'm concerned.

No ports, just a short barrel. It's a blast.

Several years ago I was asked to take several visiting Japanese businessmen to the range...they had never even seen a real gun before. A friend and I gave them a short basic pistol lesson and then stared them off with .22s, progressed to .38s and 9mms and then pulled "the big gun" out. We were later told it was the highlight of their trip to America...

A friend has one of those survival kits...I just sent him a auction link to one that was then at $1900+...not sure what it sold for...

I can imagine the visitors from Japan got a Big Bang outta that field trip!

Most of the Japanese visitors I have entertained wanted to go to Kentucky Fried Chicken... or a strip joint. Both establishments were considered to be the epitome of “American”. Next time out, I will have to show ‘em what AMERICAN really is

Question is, how many grains...

...just saw that auction for the Survival pack...now almost $2600!!
