Mine was ... right after getting the forcing cone cut and polished. Batts

Pachmayr&reg Pachmayr your primary source for quality handgun grips and recoil pads These are the latest from Pachmayr. I have the Decelerators on my N-frame, but these new ones are supposed to be even better. Batts

I just put some Wilson Combat springs in my 625JM and now the DA is light enough to shoot well one handed. The SA is a little spooky light. I may have to heavy it up w/ the middle weight return spring, but I had never thought I would ever shoot DA. I may just go DAO. It's THAT good. Batts

Had a problem and had to complain ... first. Don't get it looked at to discover the probably simple cause. After all, it was working great until you used it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B72fbXDQ7Lg Some people. Batts

You would be well served by a 625 loaded w/ 45Supers. 185@1300 and 230@1100 will match a 10mm out to 50 yards. My 625JM is a dream to shoot w/ Supers and Underwood makes very good ones. Cast lead 255's, XTP 230's, XTP 185's and others and any other ACP you can find. That's versatility too...

Since I am a 45ACP and 45Super guy, I have yet to discover an L frame w/ 5 shots. That was my ideal, but I went w/ a 625JM and I am most pleased. It's nearly the same weight as a 686 and packs a 10mm punch for hazards in the woods. Then the weight feels good and I never flinch ... my...

Clark Customs does a 460 Rowland conversion for $100 for your 625 revolver. Revolver Services from Clark Custom Guns, Inc. - Satisfaction GUARANTEED! This is merely deepening the chamber to fit a slightly longer cartridge case. The Rowland loads upwards of 40Kpsi. This is proof of the...

Those Presentation grips have more filler to reduce the DA 'hump' at the top of the backstrap than my Decelerators. I only shoot SA and could use a little more reach to get the trigger just right on the pad of my finger. The Decelerators are a nice 'rubbery' rubber that is comfortable even...

625JM. Not too big, not too small, 45Supers if I had to. Reloads easier then everything revolver. I like my Pachmayr Decelerators and ez moon clips. That 610 is a good choice too. Batts

Do you have a real comment? You seem a bit vague. Batts

Not to pound it, but my A&P experience taught me similar things. What particularly motivated me to grease pack the cylinder was the scraping of the ejector rod when the pressure applied wasn't perfectly in line. There are very fine ring grooves around the ejector shaft that seem to be there to...

I cleaned my new completely dis-assembled 625JM w/ residue-free electrical contact spray cleaner. Then I greased the cylinder pin/ejector rod assy w/ too much marine grease and wiped it down good. The marine grease is very water repellent and won't freeze or grow green over time. That really...

I guess for when a rifle just won't do? Batts

This is good advice. Just double check to make sure. Batts

That is a very clever storage idea. I myself cannot lift over about 200 rounds. My needs are more for packing a moderate amount, loaded and useable, for use out in the country while motocycling and ATVing. I discovered 1.50 inch pvc pipe is a snug fit for my loaded EZ moonclips. They hold 9+...
