Hi all, Looking for a clean set of Hogue N frame round butt grips with silver medallion as pictured.

Well, I did it...

I've only seen one 629 in person. Looked pretty nice but the grips were a poor fit with open seams. For the price I couldn't justify it...besides, I already have the OG's in every caliber with a couple of spares.

No no…just on the front sight blade.

Holy crap! That's perfect! You stole that. My seller is asking $1499 and I've gotten him down to $1150 out the door but it isn't quite as clean and doesn't have the silver medallion Hogue grips.

Hi all, I've stumbled upon a S&W 625-5 Classic, 45 Colt. Full underlug 5" barrel. One of 1550 units produced according to my research. This one has aftermarket grips, no box and is in about 90% condition. Definitely shot, some bluing loss on the front sight, lock up is good, gun is pretty clean...

I appreciate the responses and particularly appreciate Len's (Shotguncoach) video link. I learned a lot from all four of his videos! While the revolver is considerably better than it was in the beginning there is still a bit of "stickiness" at the very beginning of the trigger pull. I was...

Outstanding! Thank you.

I do shoot a lot. The SA/DA Rossi will likely be a range toy and safe queen. I'd like to get the DAO good to go as a gun to carry in my chest rig while fly fishing. I hosed it out pretty good with gun scrubber. Once that evaporated, I put some teflon grease on the obvious friction points. Same...

Spring strut is smooth. I'll take it apart again and watch all the little parts, though I don't feel the hiccup with the side plate apart like I do when the gun is together. It's getting better, but still a long way away from the DA pull on the other gun.

The insides are pretty clean. Without further disassembly, I've lubed points of contact, especially the "fly". Things are better, but still a little sticky at the initial point of trigger pull. Would someone mind taking this pic and editing, showing me where I need to be putting lube and/or...

Hey ya'll, I know this isn't specific to the forum, but I recently bought a Rossi M720 and a Rossi M720 DAO. The regular M720 with hammer has the sweetest trigger action and a super smooth double action. However, the DAO model is "sticky". If I pull the trigger ever so slightly, I can get...

This one...4" 657

I can see how the Ultra Dot might be handy, but it seems like modern RDS type sights would provide a wider/less obstructed view. Its a well made sight, but seems to be way past its prime. Admittedly, its the first I've ever owned, but am I missing something?

I've read that the 7.5" model was made for several years, but the pre-lock 7.5" was made in 2001 only.
