Custom S&W runs?

[mark k]

I'm in for a 4.25 or 5" 625.

If the ever build them, it will be a big +, in the mean time, Ruger Redhawk is offering those and getting them is a natural, later on is another game, i am very satisfied with my SRH in 4.2 inch... JP.

4.25" 625 in 45 ACP and 45 LC, pencil barrel, bring us a Canadian legal "Mountain Gun". I'll buy one of each.

Just out of curiousity, how come you prefer 6 over 8? I'm a "more ammo is always better" guy hehe. Is it due to the increased cylinder size?

Speed loaders rule.

I would also prefer 6 for competing in IPSC.

Nice!

I prefer 6 because ..... Because that's what revolvers are meant to be. You burn less ammo for one thing

Also I shoot a lot of single action and so even loading 6 I many times end up shooting 5 out of habit.

Anyway, if I was to buy a fancy 8 shot I'd go all the way with a 627, slab barrel, and all.

In a classic line gun it's just....wrong..

But we do need a 4.2" model 27 all the same

And a 45ACP gun. 25/625 - I expect the 625 would be more popular.

6 is just more classic to me. 8 just seems like a lot to cram into that cylinder even if it is an n-frame, and, aesthetically, the fluting on an 8 rounder just looks a little too busy for my taste. Always thought 7 would have made more sense and the cylinder notches would have been offset, though i'm sure there are no strength issues with an 8 round 27/627.

Ah yes, good point re: on classic wheel guns looking better with 6

I'd also be down for a 4.25" or greater 625

If all those nice revolvers end up here, they wont last long on the shelves... JP.

I must admit that my 5" 625-3, is one of my favorite revolvers!
I think everyone should have one.

What barrel length is that one?
