  • they made some .600 Nitro Express revolvers for what, i dont know. its been mislabelled as the most powerful pistol too many times. it is the most powerful *PRODUCTION* revolver. .600 NE is even more powerful than the .500s&w (even though some 3.1k foot pounds of power is still overkill) in a rifle, the nitro will produce mroe than double the S&W's power in a pistol. yeah yeah, barrel length, but i doubt the S&W could get up to the same power as the nitro.

  • At one time the .600 Nitro was the most powerful commercial rifle cartridge in the world. However, that title is now held by the .460 Weatherby Magnum and its 8245 fp of muzzle energy. But we are taking about handguns here not elephant guns.

  • I shot my first one last night! Fucking awesome! Hurt my hand! But I loved it!

  • I couldn't imagine having a C&C and carrying a cannon like that around. In a little over a year I'll be getting a C&C permit and a 1911 Colt.

  • sweet, thanks!

  • .40 S&W average load:

    135 grain bullet 1150 fps equates to = 396 foot-pounds of muzzle energy.

    Slightly higher load 150 grain at 1100 fps =

    400 ft-lbs. About equal to 45 ACP.

  • Jubeikbakami2006 what about the .40 S&W?

  • The Desert Eagle .50 AE packs a punch, but I believe the Wildey .475 Magnum takes the title as the most "powerful" autoloader pistol in production.

  • omfg that gun is powerful

  • i dunno but im pretty sure the Desert Eagle is somewhat powerfull 2, but not as powerful as this, ;)
