Jeeze, somebody take that poor thing out back and put it out of it's misery.

Which one of those things sticking out of it is the trigger?

I'm not even sure the picture is oriented the right way.

Wonder what a spare mag for that thing would run you......

I was thinking the "loop" is used to cock it.
The lowest item is an up/down slide safety, maybe covers the trigger, which would be the middle piece when slid up?

BIG bullet for the S & W 500. "Matts" bullets makes a 700 grain hard cast. that's right 700 not 70, 700. here's what it looks like next to a 9mm cartridge. just get'n ready if they clone a t-rex.

Lots of us around here have shot those things, thanks to SugarLand. No broken wrists, yet, though I will admit it was the first handgun/load combo to ever leave me with a sore wrist the next day.

I've never read the instruction manual but I've been told by .500 S&W owners I trust that the official advice from the company is to limit shooting to a dozen rounds per day. With the 700-grain loads, I'd cut that number by half. At least.

Here's SugarLand dual-wielding his .460 S&W and his 500 S&W (with 700-grain bullets), both using heavy factory loads. He's more man than I'll ever be.

It looked like it woke him up. LOL!

No, just a set of walnut Hogue double-diamonds...Hogue usually has pretty nice wood. I asked for a dark set.

That's a Colt 1911 100th Anniversary "Tier III". I added the Hogue stocks and the lanyard-loop magazine. Debating whether to shoot...or not.

Went shooting with a workmate on the weekend.
He brought these.

There was a Uberti Cattleman too, but it's not in the picture.
First time firing 45 Colt, and it was fun.

Found a deal on an FDE RMR, and picked up a Parker Mountain Machine comp. That will have to get me by, until the stamp for suppressor comes back in eight months or so.

What was the rmr deal? looking myself for one and trying to establish benchmark pricing.
