When I carry a revolver, it's either a M&P 340 or a 3" Model 65. Both are typically carried AIWB.

Smooth transaction and very helpful. Deal with confidence. FnB

I'll take the S&W 327 TRR8 $1075 (factory grips, box and three moon clips) if still available. PM to follow.

I'm a recent 3" K-Frame convert. As tricky as they are to find, I imagine an 4" J-Frame would be that much more difficult! I've never seen one in the wild. My girlfriend much prefers the Ruger SP-101. She credits the size of the grip and extra weight in helping mitigate recoil.

I'm pro Crimson Trace for my M&P 340. In fact, I have a set on a couple of other handguns. I wouldn't stand a chance of getting a descent sight picture if my glasses were to be knocked off during a scuffle. Just another tool in the toolbox should the need arise.

My 22-4 stocks are super skinny and uncomfortable. I ordered some Ahrends to remedy. Sure is taking a spell though. I might look for a T-Grip in the mean time.

I picked up a used 4" 625JM with lock for $500 a couple of years ago. I didn't even care about the lock or MIM parts at that price. I couldn't be happier. She's a hoot to shoot. FnB

Taroman hit the nail on the head. I've been extremely satistied with the moon clip tool. Works great for my .45 ACP revolvers and L-Comp. That BMT product does look interesting though. For range use, I typically throw some RIMZ in my shooting bag for the 625 JM and 22-4. Super convenient...

From an aesthetic and balance standpoint, I like my frames to grow as my barrel does. I think a 2" J-frame, 3" K-frame, 4" L-frame, and 5" N-frames are the cat's pajamas. I don't get too worked up over P&R, MIM parts, or the lock. I prefer balance and pointability combined with price and...

A 3" Model 13 for $300? I must not be living right. You did the only sensible thing.

I've used Jet Loaders with excellent results. They're taller than the HKS, similar to my Safariland. I have a Crimson Trace at the moment, but I don't recall any issues with the stock grip on my M&P 340.

Wow! This answered the EXACT same question I have. The brass bead on the JM is nice, but odd light sources seem to play havoc with my sight alignment and picture. Now I need to find a nice red ramp like my 686 SSR has. Thanks for the info. Cheers , FnB

I feel like a heel for asking, but I'm eyeballing a well used 4" Model 19 and am trying to figure out what dash model she might be. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get my grubby little hands on it yet! It looks like a P&R 4-screw, but the pics aren't too good. The serial number is...

I've had one for awhile now (11/07) and I love it. The trigger is not as nice as my PCs, but seems to be better than the average bear. She was my first L-frame and now I'm a believer. I especially like the grips, they feel a lot like my 625JM. I couldn't be more happy with her.
