Feels like you're holding the barrel of a tank. This particular version of the 500 S&W with the 8/38 barrel is heavy. If you get the biggest handgun may as well get a big version of it. Fit and finish is beautiful, but it's a Smith and Wesson so that goes without saying.

This revolver is a machine! I love the way it shoots. People usually come by my shotting area just to hear it fire. It has a good kick, but is feel pretty awesome. I would definitelly recommend it.

Received my 500 Smith & Wesson. I couldn’t be more happier with my purchase from budsgunshop.com . Shipping was fast and accurate.

I've got the 4 inch model I bought this one with hopes of hunting with it and reducing recoil with the longer barrel with full power loads and a 500 grain bullet this thing still kicks pretty good. I will more than likely be getting the 10.5 inch version to elimate some more recoi buds has fast shipping

Can’t find a thing bad to say!! The recoil is less than my 44 and the accuracy is impressive.

Wow. The 500 is a monster. The long barrel makes it rather heavy for double action target shooting but it helps to compensate for the recoil. My wife and I weren’t thrilled with full power factory ammo but reloading with lighter loads solved that problem. As usual, Bud’s was great.

Great dealer and even better gun! Fun to shoot and attracts a lot of attention.

This baby is a true hand cannon; better be prepared when you squeeze that trigger or you’ll get embarrassed and tear some ligaments. Ammunition ain’t cheap, but what a fun weapon to fire, I guarantee folks will look your way to see what you brought to the range. Big and heavy, but you’ll never be “out-gunned” unless someone has a real cannon.

The S&W 500 is an expertly crafted revolver. The trigger action in single action is light and surprised me when it broke. The fit and finish of the gun is flawless. The front sight is removable and comes with an extra blade. I bought the gun for an upcoming Alaska trip and am glad it does not have the fiber front sight. I have had others break. The grip fits my medium size hands well but will certainly suit bigger or smaller hands. I am completely satisfied with this new addition.
