Some great photos, everyone! As the only firearm design that has the chamber and barrel as separate entities the additional fireworks at the cylinder/barrel gap of a revolver can be spectacular! Take a closer look at my .38 photo. I had loaded only one chamber; so you can see some flames bouncing back to the recoil shield through the adjacent empty chambers. So cool.

I did not notice that initially, I zoomed in and yes absolutely a cool photo of the flame blow-back in the empty cylinders!!

I don’t have a photo of it, but I remember firing a S&W .500 Magnum (4in. barrel) at the local indoor range a while back. It was so loud with such a fireball that everyone just stopped shooting and looked to see what in the heck I was shooting. I swear the rafters in the place rattled a bit. Lol.

I had kinda the same experience when I was invited to shoot rotating metal discs at a new-found friend's range. The guns were .357 & under...so I thought no problem here. So I brought a couple DW15's & did okay. Not great, but okay.
Now as usual here in Utah, often times these ranges are situated at the base of either a large hill, or an actual mountain. This time, it was at the base of an outcropping of the Wasatch mountain range, northern end, near Ogden. After the shoot, as peeps were packing away their stuff, 3-4 guys whipped out some guns that were out of the rules for the shoot & started blazing away. Most of them were like 10MM & 40 Cal auto's. I went back to the truck & grabbed my Ruger SBH .44 Mag, and a handful of ammo.
The first BOOM, all other shooters fell silent. As I was reloading after that first cylinder dump, two guys approached & said WTH is that hand cannon!?
I said some iteration of, "oh, this little thing"? Then said I should have brought one of my BIG boomers, if you think this is something!
After permission, they both took turns on this gun. I don't know for sure, but I have a hunch they both currently own a version of this gun, this thing has always been a smile-maker. Hehe
