I wanted a long barrel 500 S&W in the worse way, when they came out. I’d like to hunt with it. That and it’s just a bad ass gun to have on display. But after some research, I found that the S&W 460 is more versatile. It allows you to shoot .45 Colt, .454 Casull and the .460 S&W. And to top it off, the .500 only has about 100lbs more energy than the comparable .460. Ultimately, I hope to have a .460 in the collection. That 8rd 357 looks awesome. Small/concealable 357 revolver with hi-capacity amount of rounds is exactly what I want. I was looking at the LCR for the light weight and ease of carry. But at the time the LCR came out, it was only a 38-38+p. Not sure if that changed yet. Then S&W came out with the Bodyguard 38 to compete. Still only 38+P. I then noticed that S&W makes the small J-Frame in 357/38+p and that became something of interest. I like the self defense aspect of it. +1 on the wifey loving guns and motorcycles. I’m lucky enough to have found the same. My fiancée loves all the toys. As long as I can afford it, she’ll never bitch about me getting another toy or gun. 🙂 ---

If you knew ahead of time that the zombie apocalypse was going to happen, which rifle would you buy and why? We are talking about something that can pick the zombies off from a good distance away. You have a budget of $700 or less and you need lots of ammo (ammo is part of your $700 budget). Remember used rifles and used accessories! Consider: Reliable Rifle (can be field stripped easily) Has to have enough stopping power to kill a zombie (head shot) Scope Ammo Cost Discuss! ---
