I hate to admit it, but I know where you're coming from. I have a 500 that I've had for several months now, but I have not shot it yet. But I do get it out at least once or twice a week for a "dry" run for the sake of practice and function test, and just to keep myself familar and comfortable with it.

It is one of my HD weapons, so it is not kept in a case for the sake of quick/easy access. It is also kept loaded, firing pin dropped, safety off, empty chamber (aka: cruiser ready).

I just don't have the time or money for the range...sure wish I had more of both!
