The original, my favorite, but I gotta admit, I love that model 22!

 

[Lou_NC]

This is my current favorite. I've had it about two months, so far I've smoothed the action and installed Wolff springs.

My Newest Addition

625-2 replaced the pacs with an older set of Ajax black pearls not to bad shooting. This one is a keeper for sure.

 

[Lou_NC]

ChattCat,

That's an interesting front sight on your 625-2. Looks like a combination ramp/patridge. Was that original to the gun, or did you make a change?

Night Sights

Lou NC bought the gun that way thats a Mepro front and rear night sight comb, Really work good at night or dark situations, for me though at this stage of the game, can't quite focus on the front sight during daylight conditions. Thinking about a gold bead up front.

625 “Pre-Mountain Gun” !
Springfield Armory Commemorative.
I will never figure out why S&W refused to make a production run of this gun !

A mixture of Target Model 1950's (pre-26) and 1955's (Pre-25's, 25's and 25-2's) ....

Sorry about the recycled photos... I've put these up before...

Wow! What a collection sir! Nice 25's everyone!

I love the round and own 3 1911's and pack a Colt Commander. It's utterly accurate and so far has been 100% reliable as I had it worked over for function and reliability by my old friend J.D. Jones from SSK Industries. He does great work and if you have a Thompson Contender his .375 JDJ round and barrel works on any animal in North America. Took a nice Roosevelt elk with it up on Rasberry Island, Ak. and it went down with one shot to the shoulder years ago. With a ported barrel recoil is not bad. Off the subject, sorry.

My Springer .45 was accurized for Bulleye matches and will shoot a .75 group at 25 yards all day. What kind of accuracy can I expect for this round and revolver in the 5" non IL version? I shot a friends 6" and was not impressed with it's accuracy with WWB ammo. Should have tried some of my reloads as I'm sure it would shoot much better with the right load.

I really need one of the .45 revolvers as I have TONS of .45 ammo, but no revolver. Been looking for a 3", but just might go with the longer 5" lugged barrel as these babies look cool and the 3" versions are priced to high for me.

Thanks for the pics!

I have a 5" Model 25-2 and 4" 625JM and 625PC. I think I like the PC the best.
