I have one and love it, but it was blood, sweat and tears getting all the issues sorted. Glad to hear others had better luck. Some nice looking samples.

First one I bought went back to Davdison's for replacement under their guarantee. Too many issues to list. The second gun they sent I kept, but had to send it back to S&W twice in a row to get the issues sorted.

It is a sweet shooter now, but took a LOT to get there. S&W replaced the cylinder, yoke, hand and cylinder stop. The barrel was over-torqued and had to be re-aligned and the front sight centered properly.

I own a lot of Smith & Wesson products and a trip back to the factory is a very common situation. The good news is that it only costs time and they always make it right.

If I ever find a 627 UDR locally where I can fully inspect it first, I would buy it in a heart beat. Being hard to find and sourcing off the Internet is always a **** shoot.
