Smith and Wesson Performance Center 500 500 S and W Mag 3.50 inch 5 round

The Smith & Wesson 11623 Model 500 Performance Center is a stainless-steel X-Frame .500 S&W Magnum revolver built for serious handgun hunters and recoil-conscious range veterans, marrying raw muzzle energy with practical control in a 3.50" barrel package; its five-round unfluted cylinder and X-Large frame handle full-power magnum loads while the PC-tuned action and trigger overtravel stop deliver a crisp single-action break and consistent double-action pull for reliable follow-up shots. The HiViz fiber optic front sight paired with a white-outline adjustable rear gives fast, bright sight acquisition in low light or brush, and the black finger-grooved synthetic grips tame felt recoil and promote a secure hold when shooting handloaded or factory heavy loads. At roughly 56 ounces and 9.9" overall length, the Performance Center Model S&W500 balances carryability for mountain or plains hunts with the mass needed for velocity and terminal performance on big-game targets; it comes with a Performance Center gun rug and the durable stainless finishes expected from Smith & Wesson, making this revolver a go-to choice for enthusiasts seeking maximum power from a production handgun.
