Is this even a serious question??? Price being no object, I'd buy a .50 BMG any day of the week and twice on a Sunday before buying a .500 S&W handgun.
Price being what it is, however, I don't own either - and have no plans for a .500 S&W Handgun.

Both, and I'm already half way to that goal.
Of the two, I could at least find a range to shoot .500 S&W and it is cheaper to reload. It would have to be the John Ross 5" half lug version.

Realistically, given the money, I would rather just get another used S&W Model 29 or 629 with a half lug barrel, shorten the barrel to 5", and get an action job. I would then spend any remaining funds on components. A 240 grain bullet at around 1250 fps is enough to scratch my magnum revolver itch.

... Which model of mortar sight would you put on it to achieve sufficient arc in your trajectory?
(Actually, it's probably only about 12-16" of drop if I haven't missed my guess... but still, screw you...
