This X-Frame revolver features a five-shot, fluted stainless cylinder locked at three points for optimal strength. The wide, smooth trigger and exposed hammer provide a familiar S&W operating feel, while the keyed internal lock and hammer block add factory safety measures.
The full-length underlug lends balance and protects the ejector rod, and the interchangeable pinned ramp front sight combines with a fully adjustable rear sight for precise point-of-aim adjustment. The removable compensator can be replaced with the included muzzle cap, giving shooters the choice between maximum recoil reduction or a sleeker barrel profile.
Constructed entirely of stainless steel with a uniform satin finish, the Model 500 resists corrosion and cleans easily after firing heavy magnum loads. Its 8.38" barrel maximizes velocity and energy, making this revolver a popular choice for handgun hunting and those who demand top-tier performance from a sidearm.
Introduced in 2003 and still in continuous production, the Model 500 remains a flagship in the Smith & Wesson lineup, prized for its power, durability, and distinctive presence.
