The Smith & Wesson Model 500 is the most powerful non custom built revolver as of 2012. This doesn't mean you can't build a bigger stronger revolver it just means you can't buy a stock revolver with more power than the Smith & Wesson Model 500.
The Smith & Wesson Model 500 double action revolver is what many people would call a hunting revolver, capable of taking down small to medium sized game. It's a large caliber handgun that packs the power of the .500 S&W Magnum. The .500 S&W Magnum is a 50 cal semi rimmed handgun cartridge that was designed in 2003 by the company Cor-Bon and S&W X-Gun engineering team.
This revolver holds 5 rounds, has a satin stainless steel finish on frame and cylinder and weighs 72.5 oz. If you want to post comments, questions, and photos below.
