BTT for price drop

Excellent condition S&W 625-8 45 ACP stainless revolver - Round count unknown - I bought it used, but I haven't shot it in over a year, so it must go! 4" (NOT the Jerry Miculek version),adjustable sights Includes factory S&W wood grips and Hogue rubber grips Includes a few moonclips/half...

Dale, that is some fine shooting! I can only hope to be close to that! Question for the you all: I currently have a 1911 in the nightstand for an HD gun. Would the 625 make a better option? I would have to get trigger time to get as comfortable operating it as I am with my 1911, but I might...

Thanks all for your responses. Just traded for a holster on another forum. Mike

So I got the revolver itch a while back. After doing my homework here and elsewhere, I finally made a purchase. (You folks certainly don't help a guy save money!) My new baby is a S&W 625-8 with a 4" barrel. I was hoping you all could tell me a little about my purchase. - I have seen a...

Judge, I am interested. Do you know the size of the belt loops? Can you provide me the model number so I can look for it online. Thanks. Mike

Just acquired a 4" 625 an I am looking for a holster. Not really picky, but here is what I would like: - RH - prefer black color - at least 1.5" belt loops - under $40 Anyone have anything? Thanks. Mike

Tbury, I read somewhere about the golf club shaft trick. As I assemble golf clubs for a hobby, I have some shafts laying around. I will have to try that. Any more thoughts on holster options? Thanks.

Vulcan Bob, Thanks for the demooner tip and holster info. I have a Bianchi #5 for my 1911, so I might have to check on the #5BHL for the big N framer. I also like the looks fo the JW O'Rourke LRG Pancake. Any other suggestions?

Thanks for the welcome and the info. m657, I have a Bladetech for my 1911 and a comptac for my CZ, so I am familiar with Kydex holsters. I wil look at them, but I guess I was thinking leather. Incidentally, the gun is a 4 incher, which I hear is a great barrel length for this gun. I have...

Greetings guys. I have been an avid shooter for a while, but I am new to the wheelgun world. Thanks to you gurus/luntics, I recently decided I wanted to acquire a revolver or two. With ammo prices being what they are, I liked the idea of ammo compatibility with my 1911 that I currently use for...

Thanks for all of the feedback guys. Some great points. As 624 Fan said, in classic gun-nut fashion, I may have to buy 2 revolvers! I am increasingly thinking I want a 625, but that is for me! I agree that a J/K frame with .38 special might be the better choice for home defense choice as it...
