Today, I shot a 50 caliber Smith and Wesson REVOLVER! I don't know the model but it is the one with the 4' barrel.
All I can say is OH MY GAWD!!!
I have never fired a gun with more kick that this thing had. I was using as solid as a two handed grip as I could muster and I was still worrying about getting a broken nose.
I shot all 5 shots. By the thrid short the pattern of the grip was imprinted on my hand. Most guys who shot the thing stopped at 3 shots but when I saw that my first three shots were in the 9 ring of the silhouette I got motivated to put another 2 out.
What an experience I had today. Nothing but shooting, shooting, shooting. I started out yesterday by buying a precharged pneumatic pro grade Air Force Air Gun, .177 caliber.
I went to where my friend works, a local gun shop and shooting range, where they were having an S&W day. I spent some time sighting in my scope and then went up and shot the S&W. I shot 3 or 4 but the two I remember were the 9mm and the 50 cal. I actually did pretty good for my first time out with handguns. With the exception ofthe 50 cal all of my shots were within a 2" grouping and in the center mass.
Anyhow, I figured I woud let you guys know about the 50 cal since we were talking about it lately.
Best,
Dan
