Move over Dirty Harry, there's a new big gun in town. Smith & Wesson unveiled their 0.50-caliber magnum revolver recently (see it here). Billed as the most powerful production revolver in the world (there are various other makes that chamber rifle rounds, or cut down versions of rifle rounds) it has 2,600 ft/lbs of muzzle energy. So, do you feel lucky? Well, do ya?

Yep. Much better than your regular 9mm Browning.
Really helps.
When the other one has dynamyte strapped to his waist.
Or is sniping from a hidden place.
Or has just opened the vale on a cyanide bottle.
...
Or has a police badge on his shoulder.

Of course, they say it is for hunting big game only. But as with any tool, it can be misused. I hear that some police organizations are not happy to know that there is yet another handgun that can pierce their "bullet proof" vests.
