Evening to you all. I'd like to introduce you all to Edna, my S&W .500 Magnum which I've been loving dearly. Been a couple months or more ago my Grandma passed on. She was one tough, sweet, amazing lady, and my best bud as well. After about two days of mopping around I got off my ass, and went and purchased my .500 Mag & named it Edna after my Granny. Since then I've ran several rounds down range, and I cant get enough of it!! May have to get a 6" before too long. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!

Edna sounded like a hell of a woman. And awesome to hear she's memorialized in a hell of a hand cannon.

She was a hunter, Fisher, pretty much queen of all trades. It was either the .500 or a Desert Eagle at the time, and I felt this to be more fitting. Love and miss her, but will meet up again one day!!
