Default NEW 325NG (first time trying pics)

I ordered a 325NG in March as a Birthday Present for myself. I was told that it was a special order for them since they deal with mostly law-enforcement weapons and this one is not in that category. The price was the lowest I had found so I ordered it. They said it would take about a month to get. Well 1 month, 2 months, 3 months!! Whose counting?? ME.. I also ordered a holster from Ray at LOBO around the same time. I have had the holster for over a month with no gun. Well, the wait is finally over. I went to pick her up today. While I was completing the paperwork I was suprised to see every single person in the store including the other employees that were not helping migrating around my new gun. I must say she looks very intimidating. I can't wait to get her to the range..I havn't bought a new gun in a long time and the excitement of today was worth the wait.

You will like it.
I have the 310NG the 10mm/40 S&W version.
I did put a set of S&W Walnut Checkered Finger Groove grips on mine. It looks much better, but recoils harder. Mine shoots very well. You will need a couple California Competition Works Moon Clip Carriers.

Enjoy

Bob

I have a 325 NG. I have used S&W Mod 25-2's for duty guns, back in the day, so I am very fond of the 45 ACP revolver concept.

A buddy had this 325 and offered to sell it to me a few years ago, so I jumped on it.

It has the Ahern wood combat grips on it. I find it very controlable to shoot and very accurate, for its purpose. I carry it on many road trips, and I keep it under my pillow every night.

I have a 325PD. VERY light and comfortable gun to carry in an O'Rourke pancake, with Hogue grips. Can't say enough in praise of the Hogue grips; the gun was uncomfortable to use until I tried the Hogues. Of course, YMMV.

Congratulations on your purchase. I own a 325NG, and it has a permanent spot in my carry rotation. It's light enough to easily carry, and the recoil is more akin to a .38 Special. I changed out the original Pachmayr's eventually, for a set of Ahrends Combat stocks. They're really comfortable, and they fit my hand like custom stocks.
