"The SW500 is a handfull of gun !!!"

Don't I know it - I fired a friend's and drew blood on my hand from the recoil - no bruise, just blood seeping out of my hand about one inch square.

Well, we could go all the way up to .50BMG, but at least there are pistols chambered in .45-70, so I could go for that. :lol:
