The time frame for my warranty repair is long. But with the massive sales of new firearms and the negative impact of the virus on worker schedules, I give S&W a pass. My J Frame is repaired and in the holster.

No other damage, my hip was a little sore. The bull head-butt was unintentional and nothing major. It was feeding time. Goes to show-- be on the guard when around livestock.

Thank you. Lesson learned the hard way, check the screws and extractor rod every time after firing. A proof-point: This handgun has had only something around 40 rounds fired, all 38 Special factory loads, one time at the range. BTW, I purchased my first revolver in 65 or 66, a Hawes Western...

My inoperable 642 Airweight was shipped to S&W Springfield for warranty repair. It shipped on October 12, was received by S&W on October 19, repaired, and shipped back on December 7. Today, December 9, my J Frame is back in its holster. The problem: The cylinder would not open. Per S&W the...

Much appreciated, I will check out the King Cobra and the SP101. Price matters but is not the primary driving factor.

The Kimber K6S is too much gun for me. This, the lightest 357 mag revolver, does not appear to be a shooter/plinker. Just purchased a 642 Airweight in June. An in-stock option at Cabellas was a J-frame 357 mag. Even as my primary carry weapon, a J-frame 357 mag too was too much gun for me...

Thanks, just learned that Kimber was in the revolver business from another poster. I will check this out.

Did not know Kimber makes revolvers. A friend owns a 1911 model Kimber and holds it in esteem.

Your advice please on my next revolver purchase, narrowing down to three: GP100, Model 66 and Model 686. Many Youtube videos and on-line reviews have been consumed. Use: Concealed carry and plinking. Caliber: 357 Mag. Size: Barrel length 2" to 3". No intent to shoot hot loads. Shot...

Your advice please on my next revolver purchase,

Thank you. This 629 has never been modified. I am the second owner, the original owner is a relative. He kept it stock as well base barely shot. The source of these terms comes from the "Revolver Guy" https://revolverguy.com/rg101-hammers-and-triggers/

Help please. Is this correct for my 629-1, Hammer: "Target" ? Trigger: “Combat” ? Grips: "Service" ? How common is mixing these types? Thank you.

When I recently took my grandson to the range his favorite shooters was the 629 with magnum loads. Shooting a 44 mag revolver is like driving a big-block 60s muscle car: An unforgettable rush and so much fun. Teach your (grand)children well.

Help please. Is My 629-1 a legitimate "Three T" model? If it is, what does the "3 Ts" mean as far as value and capability and collectability? Serial #N8971**, 4" barrel. Thank you.
