The 25-5 is my favorite hunting sidearm and range gun
4-5" seem to be the best balance with the big N-frame, IMHO. .45 colt is my favorite cartridge of all time. I have it in many revolvers (Colt SAA, Ruger, Cimarron) and a Henry brass Big Boy too (in 45.70 also). These S&W are both 4", blued is ~1980 and the nickel is ~1982. Both with N serial numbers. I'm not a collector, only need one of each, so am considering letting the nickel go so I can move on to something else.
Poor photos but......
