S&W .500 Magnum Gel Tests, Cylinder Gap Blast, Internals & Construction

{ 38 comments }

The lore surrounding the brute force of the Smith & Wesson S&W500 is legion. There have been plenty of tales about what this gun is capable of doing, both to the lackadaisical shooter and the intended target. I decided I needed to sort through some and separate fact from fiction and test one for myself.

The longslide is not a new concept. Extended versions of standard handguns date back to the days of cased dueling pistols. However, it was only in modern times that the concept has been truly perfected. Here are half a dozen of some of the best examples of the genre, from yesterday through to today.

Ammo Test: Sig Sauer Elite Performance .357 Sig V-Crown

I’ve always been a big fan of .357 Sig caliber. Yeah, I know, it’s got more recoil and muzzle blast than 9mm. On the other hand, it comes darn close, and sometimes matches, the performance of the classic 125-grain .357 Magnum round. It’s hard to argue with the effectiveness of that cartridge.

The TandemKross 10/22 Magazine Take Down Tool makes it possible to detail strip, deep clean, and properly reassemble Ruger 10/22 magazines with the factory specified 1¼ turns of rotor spring tension required for proper function. And it does this for just $9.99.

I’d heard the positive feedback from others about this tool kit. The only thing left to do was order one for myself and see if it was really as easy to use as others described. I certainly had enough dirty magazines to try it out on.
