Default 6/25

Continuing on a theme started by others, let’s see the S&W Model 625 today.!

While S&W chose to mark this one as a 625 and call it a Mountain Gun, it is my thought that the tapered barrel puts it in the 626 family but they did not ask me.

My Model 625-6.

My 625-8. (JM) It has worn many different stock sets. Added the Hi-Viz front sight, which was a big plus for me! Bob

Those are terrible images of my 625 Lite Hunter and 625 Hunter. I actually just laid the revolvers on a flatbed scanner. I pulled them out last Saturday to re-photograph them. So those two images will magically update in about a week.

Those are both Performance Center offerings chambered for the 45 Long Colt cartridge.

The 625 Lite Hunter (SKU 170085) came into my local gun shop back in 1997. I thought it looked great and bought it instantly. I have always liked serial numbers. The serial number of the gun was CLT0003. I had the shop check with the Distributor to see of serial number CLT0045 was available. So I bought that one as well. I eventually traded off number 3, but number 45 will not be sold in my lifetime

The 625 Hunter (SKU 170081) was from a 1996 run that allegedly went over to Europe with about 50 pieces staying in the US. The Hunter comes with 5 weight and 5 spacers that fit into the underlug. This allows you to change the weight and balance of the firearm to your liking

Well, Photobucket is playing games with me again today, so I'll try to upload directly. Here goes. A 625-2 Model of 1988, and a 625-6 Mountain Gun - both modified somewhat to my taste.

It is no secret, on these pages, how much I favor a good .45 ACP revolver. The illustrated 625-8 JM Special is one of my all time favorite revolvers.

These days you will mostly find me on the range using a Mihec version of the H&G #68 (200 grs. SWC ahead of 4.0 grs. of Bullseye or equivalent). It seldom fails to satisfy!

FWIW

My 625-3, which originally had a 4" barrel. I sent it back to S&W to have this 5 incher put on and had them do their Combat Revolver package at the same time.

Thank you, while I knew that, I was not thinking that far in the past.

Not to mention the start of the Korean War, 70 years ago yesterday. Truly a forgotten war...

Oops, can't count this early in the morning!
