Lets talk Revolvers

[Marksman63]

Why not a 625 JM?

I prefer the ones without the full under lug also, though my 617 has one.

When I turned 21 WAAAAY back when, first purchase was a Model 19 6". It's taken deer, pigs, one turkey and a mess of rattlers. Last handgun purchase was a Model 57 that someone had abused and put away. I got it cerakoted and new grips to replace the cracked one's that were on it. Sweet shooting handguns.

Hope I'm in your will...want that .38 Super...as soon as possible!!

 

[Rem06]

S&W 686 all the way! i have a 4" and 6" and love em both but the 6"bbl just by looking at them is so easy to tell that it gets way more use

One of my Favorites. S&W Model 29 - 8 3/8" Barrel in .44 Magnumn

I would rather have an older Smith .357 than a current one from the Performance center. I am not a fan of Dan Wesson's after having owned a few and have yet to shoot my unfired (except for proof round) Python from 1977. For heavy loads my favorite .357 is the model 27 with a 6.5" barrel and for light loads the Model 19 or 66. Ruger's have never done it for me either. The newer S&W L Frames are nice too.

I have a S&W model 19 357 mag and with it’s deep high polish blueing plus the way it fits my large hands and has such a awesome trigger.... well it’s just hard not to like and/or enjoy shooting it....

But my go to 357 mag is my SS full lug GP-100 that I bought many years ago. It also fits my hand well and has also had the trigger worked on... however I installed the optional round front and v-rear sights that I really like. It has taken many deer out to 70ish yards (the limit of my skills) and just happened to take the largest buck I ever shot at about 10 yards. So maybe it’s all the fond memories that make the GP-100 extra speacial. I would have a very hard time parting with either.

Had a few of the .357/.41&.44’s settled on an early 57-4” nickel and a later stainless 657. First .41 was a Ruger Blackhawk for backup on big pigs...always ! Smith’s handle the 265grs gas checks & enforcer really well.
Thanks Elmer for all the work!

Egan I will see those revolver before you see that 38 super cause you already have one foot in the grave !!!!!!!

 

[dogdude]

I may have one foot in the grave, but the other foot can still kick your butt!!

Now back too Revolvers...more to come.

 

[rkittine]

I may just have to go take some more pictures when I have time to add to this thread.

[Dgd6mm]

S&W 19, 66, 686.

 

[ebb]

I think if you want to shoot heavy loads in 357 a Model 28 is the way to go. N frame 357.

I had one of these. My favorite out of the 3 44 mags I had. I don't really miss them, but they were nice. I've kinda turned into a .40 guy. Still like my revolvers.
