I own and enjoy the 625 revolvers in .45 ACP very much. Since I like the moonclip loading and wanted to add to my revolver collection, a few months ago I started looking for a 610 to compliment the 625's.

I'm kind of amazed at the price differential I'm seeing for 610's compared to 625's. To me, these two models are more similar than different........both are N-frames, both can take moon clips, both shoot popular rounds.

Is there something about the 610 that seems to be driving prices several hundred dollars above comparable 625's? Are they THAT much more popular, were there THAT many fewer 610's made than 625's? Or perhaps is it that you can still get a new 625 today (although I personally wouldn't buy one with the hole) and you can't get a new 610?

Just curious what people might think the reasons are.

Thanks,
Lou
