What do you mean it's no longer the most powerful handgun in the world?

Is the Model 22, Model of 1917 an N-Frame?

While I'm not the biggest revolver enthusiast, I do think it's scathingly brilliant of S&W to bring back a few of their older but still popular models, including the original Model 29 in 44 magnum.

Here's a sweet "little" N-Frame. My 1958 model 27 no dash 8-3/8 barrel, with original coke bottle grips.

Possibly the most accurate revolver I ever owned was a model 27 with an 8 and 3/8" barrel. I got it used from an old man at a reasonable price. Have also owned a bunch of six inch model 29's plus one model 57 and a single model 25. Not a bad one in the bunch.
Of the six inch model 29's possibly the best one was one I got from a dealer who bought a bunch of odds and ends at a police auction. This particular one had a broken rear sight which I had repaired on the spot at a gun show..
After they went to the full length underlug I never bought another one, just didn't like the look.

.500 Magnum? How about .600 Nitro?
