She must have some big and very strong hands.

I have extra large hands and have won a lot of arm wrestling contexts.

A couple of decades I tried out a 44 mag and a 357 mag and decided on the 357. It was loud enough and kicked enough for me.

She looks like a sturdy girl (not the description most women hope for).

I have a .38/.357 that I keep on my night stand, I keep it loaded with .38s.

I already have to wear hearing aids. I figure if I ever fired inside the house, I’d have to throw away the hearing aids because my hearing would be beyond help.

My experience with a .44 mag was that there was little kick, I suppose due to the mass of the gun itself, but it was a pain to hold up after a couple of shots. The thing needs wheels and a lanyard. i haven’t tried the .50.

You've gotta be kidding me. I'm an average size man with average size hands and shooting a S&W mod29 .44 mag is much easier to shoot than my S&W mod19 .357mag.
