What would say would be the most powerful handgun you have fired?

 I once fired a 44 special missed getting to the magnums

50 cal anti-aircraft gun mounted on the back of the Truman.  Ohhh.. you said hand gun.  As in limited to pistols only... so an MP5 wouldn't count either?  Darn it.  Ok.. a 44 mag and it sucked. OH GOD did it ever suck.  Sorry, but unless you're only going to shoot it one time, I'd pass.  That thing is a beast! LOL

44 mag for me also. I've always wanted to try one of those T/C contenders set up as a handgun with like 7mm or something

I like to try a T/C in 45-70. I think the muzzel blast would be awasom.

I shot a Thompson Contender in 35 Remington, and it was pretty smooth shooting.

I Shot the 50AE Desert Eagle, that was fun.

Shot Many a 44magnum.

Shot a .357MAXIMUM, WOW!!! what power. 2000+ fps on a 158gr JHP ;D

I got to shoot the 500 smith and wesson, it felt alot like the 44 magnum. I wasn't impressed.

I'd like to try a 454 casull, or the 460 S&W, they are both reported to be beasts.
