MW3 Smith & Wesson Model 500 - Modern Warfare 3

Smith & Wesson Model 500

The Smith & Wesson Model 500 appears as the “Basilisk” (or “Centum 5” in pre-release). The barrel appears to be somewhere between the 4 and 8 inch barrel options for the real Model 500, most likely 6 inches. Similar to Battlefield 2042’s Taurus Raging Hunter, unfired rounds in the chamber are retained while reloading. Having the “Fast Reload” perk or “Akimbo” attachment omits retaining rounds entirely, but keeps it in the player’s ammunition pool.

The Model 500 in the gunsmith screen. Note the “Bryson .500 Magnum” markings on the barrel.

The player character draws a bead with his Smith and Wesson hand cannon.

Wielding the “Basilisk” in game.

The player character admires the stainless steel polish of the “Basilisk”, mid-Revolver Ocelot imitation.

A brief glimpse of the right hand side of the revolver. Note that the markings imply the in-universe name of the Basilisk is the “Bryson 780”.

Dumping the fired casings out of the cylinder.

Reloading new rounds into the cylinder via a speedloader.

Without Fast Reload, partial reloads have the player character retain the unfired rounds:

  • At 1 or 2 rounds fired, the operator pats the ejector rod to loosen the fired rounds and manually replaces them, leaving the unfired rounds in the cylinder.
  • At 3 or 4 rounds fired, the operator lifts the cylinder to drop out and retain the unfired round(s), before ejecting and reloading the rest of the cylinder.The primers will always appear as intact, however.
