The Smith & Wesson M&P R8 is an interesting revolver, to say the least, based on the legendary Smith & Wesson N Frame platform which is normally reserved for larger calibers such as the .44 Magnum. But for the R8's case, this gun fires either .357 Magnum or .38 Special which is smaller than the .44 Mag. Because of these factors, Smith & Wesson is able to squeeze 8 rounds into the cylinder of this revolver making it carry more rounds than most conventional revolvers in the market, this revolver became a pop culture sensation and has appeared in many blockbuster video game franchises such as Call of Duty as well as Counter-Strike.
