Hey folks, lookin to purchase a new or used Smith. Revolver or auto, doesn't matter. Send me some ideas of what you guys have, and maybe we can work something out. Been wanting another Smith for a while now, but not too sure what exactly I want, so give me some ideas! Thank you! bmdaniel92

It all boils down to what your looking to do with it. Both are excelent hunting revolvers, but each one has it's own pro's and con's. IMO, the .460 is a more versitile handgun, being able to fire .45LC, .454C, and the .460MAG. Almost every sporting store, including Dick's and Wal-Mart will have...

The barrel does not seem to be bulged. As soon as I got home, I pulled the grips off and took the cylinder and yoke assembly out and proceded to try and punch out the slug(s). I think the bullet(s) moved slightly, but I was unable to make any further progress. I didn't want to damage the barrel...

Hey folks. Took my buddy to the range with me today to do some shooting and had a reloading mishap. He was shooting his .38 handloads out of my 637 when he had a squib. He said the shot before that felt strange as well, so I believe there is 2 bullets lodged in the barrel. I tried my wooden...

I have a 637-2 with a Ti cylinder swap that has seen over 1k rounds, and not a single issue. Like someone said in a previous post, just pay attention to you gun while cleaning it, and look for any defects or issues that could lead to a bigger problem down the road.

Hey folks. Looking to get my 637's backstrap engraved with my initials from the guys at Smith and Wesson. Just wondering if anyone here has had any experiance with them, and if so, if you could post a picture of their work. Thank you! bmdaniel92

I've been pretty lucky with the loads I've been producing for my 500. I use a 300gr Hornady XTP with about 40gr of H110. I've had no issue hitting a paper plate at about 100 yards with my 8 3/8". The starting load for the 300gr bullet is around 42gr, but I stick to the 40gr to save my hand, and...

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. Anyone here have any pictures of their police trade in's? If so, lets see them! Thanks! -bmdaniel92

Hey folks. We have a 2 day gun show coming to a town near me next weekend. Looking for a gently used police trade in, in either .38 or .357. Haven't been to the show in a couple years now, and I don't really know what the trade in prices are looking like currently. What would be a safe estimate...

Hey folks. I have a 637-2 and I'm looking to buy a titanium cylinder for it. I found this one online... Cylinder Assembly, .38 Special, Fluted, 5 Shot, Titanium, Factory Original Just wondering if this would be compatible in my 637. Thank you! Brandon

Just picked up a Model 500 from a local cop in town. It's a blast to shoot and I've already done some reloading for it. My question is, can I use .50 cal muzzle-loader JHP slugs in my gun? I've seen some TC copper slugs at sporting goods stores and they seem almost identical to some of the...
