I HAVE A 625, MODEL OF 1989 WITH A 4" BARREL, THAT I PAID NORTH OF $1200. FOR, WHEN ALL WAS SAID AND DONE. ITS CHAMBERED IN .45ACP. I DON'T REGRET BUYING IT FOR 1 SECOND. I HAVE NOT SEEN ANOTHE 4" MODEL FOR SALE IN THE 3 YEARS THAT I HAVE OWNED IT. IT IS THE MOST ACCURATE S&W REVOLVER THAT I OWN, AND IT HAS THE BEST OUT OF THE BOX TRIGGER ALSO……
THIS IS THE FIRST BLUED MODEL OF 1989 THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN. BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE ABOVE, I WOULD JUMP ON THAT DEAL, FROM A LGS, FOR $999. YOU SNOOZE--YOU LOSE ! ! ! IT APPEARS TO BE A BEAUTIFUL REVOLVER. IT WILL DEFINITELY APPRECIATE TO A GREATER VALUE THAN WHATEVER YOU HAVE INTO IT, AND YOU WILL HAVE THE PLEASURE OF OWNING AND SHOOTING A TERRIFIC REVOLVER….
THE .45 COLT IS A FANTASTIC CALIBER. THERE IS A VARIETY OF FACTORY AMMO AVAILABLE FOR IT, RANGING IN POWER FROM VERY MILD COWBOY LOADS, TO BIG HARDCAST SOLIDS, THAT WILL TAKE DOWN ANYTHING WALKING IN NORTH AMERICA. THE BIG EMPTY BRASS IS A VERITABLE PLAYGROUND FOR HANDLOADERS TO FILL WITH THERE SPECIAL BREW AND TOP WITH THEIR FAVORITE BULLET. I OWN A 625 MOUNTAIN GUN, CHAMBERED IN .45 COLT. ITS A FANTASTIC SHOOTER, THAT IS AS ACCURATE AS MY MODEL OF 1989 IN .45 ACP, BUT RUNS A VERY CLOSE SECOND IN THE TRIGGER DEPARTMENT, OUT OF THE BOX…..
IT WOULD COST SOMEONE QUITE A BIT OF MONEY TO PRY EITHER OF THESE OUT OF MY HANDS. LEST I FORGET, NEITHER HAS THE DISFIGURING IL. BELOW IS A PIC OF THE MOUNTAIN GUN, WEARING AHRENDS SMOOTH TACTICAL CONVERSION GRIPS, AS DOES MY MODEL OF 1989, AND MOST OF MY ROUND BUTT S&W REVOLVERS.…...
