Pwnery's Firearms Reviews - S&W M500-4 "Backpacker" in .500 S&W Magnum

Hello, and welcome back to another Pwnery's Firearms Reviews - and today I'm bringing you SIZE. This is the Smith and Wesson M500-4 Backpacker - a 4" (actually 3" with a 1" Compensator) X-frame revolver in .500 Magnum. It's big, it's heavy, and it saved my life. I'll show you the ins and outs of the revolver, and tell the story of why I got it, and how I used it. This is the gun that replaced another one I had for "large and dangerous game" which you'll see about a week from this episode.

So anyway - sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. Thanks for watching, subscribing, sharing, and tolerating me fumbling through these reviews. Since I'm a self-funded operation, they do tend to come few and far between, but I'm sitting on a small stable of future reviews that I just hadn't had the time to sit down and really get filmed and uploaded - hopefully that'll change soon.

Note : I do not do these videos for any monetary gain thanks to the "unique" changes YouTube has made in their requirements for monetized content, and have maintained procedural information as close as possible in line with their new guidelines as well. I do these videos for solely for the spread of information, and maybe a little notoriety in my often-infringed upon community.

Sadly, I no longer own this awesome revolver - I sold it to help a friend in financial troubles, and they thanked me by disappearing off the face of the earth... 🤦‍♂️ I do plan on replacing it some day with another one just like it, but by the time I get around to doing it, I'm sure I'll be paying nearly twice what I originally got this one for.
