Looks like a 44mag Ruger Super Blackhawk Polished

Looks like a 44mag Ruger Super Blackhawk Polished


That would be my guess

I am BY FAR no expert, but the cylinder looks rather small to me for a .44mag :dunno

He claims it to be a 50 caliber:dunno

He claims it to be a 50 caliber:dunno
I'm sure it was just for the movie...I always wanted to know what gun that was.

yeah, but this is the movies :lol

If that IS the case, it can only be one of these as far as I can find :dunno


BFR .500 S&W Magnum (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnum_Research_BFR)
Raging Bull Model 500 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taurus_Raging_Bull)
Smith & Wesson Model 500 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_%26_Wesson_Model_500)

And looking at pics, this is the only one that looks close

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnum_Research_BFR

Searching around Google though, most seem to think it is a .454 casull

Looks deceptively like a Freedom Arms Model 83 - which comes in a number of barrel lengths and calibers including .50AE and .454 Casull:

Also that movie is from '86 (as per IMDb), when most of the guns you mention, Joe weren't on the market. The M83 was, though.

The 50AE wasn't out until '88 and the .500 S&W not until '03 so the ".50 caliber" quote in the movie is just Hollywood BS... Like the "ceramic Glock 7 that doesn't show up on airport X-rays" in Die Hard 2 :lol

yeah, it appears the SW .500 is only from 2003 to present, and the .50AE was developed in '88, so the likelyhood of it being a true .50cal as he says in teh movie seems slim :dunno

Other possiblities as per Wiki (take it for what it is worth)

I didnt look through them yet, jsut found them. I am just bored and curious myself :lol The top one is what SVS said though, so it might be it.

Several of those it for sure ain't :lol

For example the Gyrojet - which fired small and very NOT precise rockets :lol

And Joe, the .500 Wyoming Express in your first link came out in '05 :biggrin

I'm going to have to go with ss ruger super black hawk in 44mag. It looks exactly like mine, but the clip isn't too detailed to be able to say for 100% sure

I told you I didnt look through them (at the time I hadnt at least) :lol. I just copy pasted the list of .50 handguns :D

I dunno why but it just looks to cool...might have to look into it.
