Very nice!
Knowing how my revolver feels on the hand, how does that feel on the shoulder? If I still hunted that would be nice to pair with my handgun.
The .500 is way overkill for most game in North America but would be great piece of mind if face to face with a Grizz. One decent shot and bye bye Grizz.

Not bad the carbine loaded is about 11 pounds and I can shoot 50 rounds without any issues. I am not a big guy 5'8" at 165 pounds but have been shooting big bore rifles for 40 years. The .500 revolver is so fun to shoot I can do 50 rounds in it too. Here is a 75 yard target I shot with the iron sites from the pistol along with the pistol and holster I made. I also made a full western rig with 25 round belt. I want to reach out further with the pistol so I will be getting a red dot. Also attached is a target with 6" bullseye at 100 yards shot with the carbine.
