Smith & Wesson

In 2003, Smith & Wesson set out to redefine the boundaries of handgun power and performance with the introduction of the Model S&W500™. Designed by the company's skilled gunsmiths and engineers, this groundbreaking revolver was born from the need to deliver maximum power for serious handgun hunters. The quest for unparalleled power led to the creation of the massive "X-Frame™" frame, setting the stage for the most powerful production revolver ever built.

At the heart of the Model S&W500™ is the massive .500 S&W Magnum cartridge, capable of delivering a staggering 2600 ft/lb. of muzzle energy. This exceptional power makes it a formidable hunting handgun suitable for taking down any game animal, from small game to large predators. With the S&W500™ in hand, hunters can confidently pursue their quarry with unrivaled stopping power and velocity.

To further enhance its performance, the Model S&W500™ comes equipped with innovative features such as HIVIZ® sights for enhanced visibility and accuracy, along with an interchangeable compensator. This removable compensator ensures optimal recoil management and allows shooters to customize their firearm according to their specific needs. Additionally, the revolver includes two muzzle brakes—one for use with jacketed bullets and another for use with lead bullets—providing versatility and adaptability for various shooting scenarios. With its unmatched power and versatility, the Model S&W500™ stands as a testament to Smith & Wesson's commitment to pushing the boundaries of handgun technology and delivering the ultimate in firepower.
