This video from Rock Island Auction Co. showcases a remarkable John Linebaugh custom revolver chambered in .500 Linebaugh. Built on a Ruger Blackhawk Bisley frame, this single-action revolver offers rifle-like power in a belt-holster-friendly package. It fires a 440-grain bullet at impressive velocities, surpassing even .44 Magnum in some aspects, despite weighing less. The description highlights the custom features, including a modified cylinder and reinforced front sight, designed to handle extreme recoil. The .500 Linebaugh cartridge's history and effectiveness on big game are discussed, with a nod to Elmer Keith's likely appreciation for such a powerful firearm.
