Smith & Wesson’s Model 460XVR™ has the highest muzzle velocity of any production revolver on earth at 2,100 feet per second. The Model 460XVR™ is so revolutionary that it required an entirely new designation. . . the XVR, X-treme Velocity Revolver.
Performance Center guns originate from standard designs or are created from the ground up. From hand-cutting and fitting to fine-tuning for precision, these firearms are top performers.
Products from the Performance Center are the ultimate expression of old-world craftsmanship blended with modern technology.
