Okay,
I'm a self-confessed gun addict and must ask, who owns the S&W 500 and for what purpose? I am seriously considering the 500 in a 4" variant just because it appeals to me. I'm not a hunter and understand that the cost of factory ammo will be outrageous to say the least, but I just love the looks of the pistol and the fact that it is the current ruler of the pistol market in terms of stopping power.
Of course, if I purchase this weapon it will not be a range gun, it will be an occasional target gun maybe once or twice a year. I consider this to be perhaps the most definitive home defense gun; however, one would require hearing protection prior to use.
What do you folks use these for? I want one but must justify ownership prior to buying one.
Any thoughts and/or opinions are welcome.
