Just the .38 or does it shoot .357 too? My buddy has one in .357 and we shot some +p out of it. It was the most uncomfortable thing I’ve ever shot. That includes my neighbors .460S&W.

Just .38 for mine. I have a Ruger Blackhawk that I can shoot both. But the BH is a bit large for carrying unless I'm out in the woods.

I can't imaging shooting 357 out of that stubby little barrel. I hear ya!!!

The S&W 500 is no joke. Some girl killed herself when it recoiled back and she had her finger on the trigger for the next shot. The guys she was with thought it would be funny having a novice shoot that thing.

It’s no joke. When we would take it to the range everyone around us would stop and watch. I was two booths down from him and the shockwave was still moving my clothes.

that had to have been a mess.

i'm curious though of her grip or the trigger weight on a SW 500. i've never shot one but i just feel it would be rare to pull again just through the recoil. not saying not possible just odd situation.

Yeah, it got away from her and swung back for the doubletap. Id imagine that after the first shot and as the muzzle was swinging up and back, her instinct wouldve been to move her shooting hand (and trigger finger) away, bang! shes a gonner.

Reminds me of the situation in which the parents of a 9 year old girl took her to shoot an Uzi at a range and ended up shooting/killing the instructor. The gun just got away from her as the rounds were firing. Sad for everyone involved!

thats was in like AZ or NM a few years back.

first off pretty sure i wouldn't allow a 9 year old to go full auto. yes the kid was a competition shooter already but a 9 year old girl just doesnt have the strength for that.

I dont blame the girl. The dudes she was with were the dumbasses. They broke just about the most basic gun safety concerns there are.
- they let a novice shoot a hand cannon
- they ignored the 1 bullet rule where you only load one round and ONLY one round for a novice shooting a particular gun for the first time
- they were @ssholes

Again, gun safety was ignored
- the RO, instructor, or whatever you want to call him was standing to her side, and not behind her.
- he didnt properly brace the girl shooting
- more than 1 round for a novice shooter
- he was an @sshole (as with the parents)

Ive taken guy friends out shooting for their first time. They all try to be macho, asking why the hell am I only letting them fire one round from my 1911. I tell them, because I dont want to be the @sshole responsible for him killing themself or someone else.

And then the youtube kid who thought a phone book could stop a round from a Desert Eagle 50. He held the phonebook and had his gf shoot the Desert Eagle. He was just an @sshole!

I was referring to the BF. The S&W500 is a lot of gun for anyone to handle, much less someone that doesn’t know what to expect.

You hit the nail on the head, ONE round at a time.
