Hello All, I recently aquired a 625 JM (I am not the original owner) and I have found my new favorite firearm. I do have a question for you all. Where can I get .039 thick moon clips? It came with the rimz plastic moon clips which worked great and flawlessly at the range. But I wanted to...

I just picked up my 625 JM today and took it out for a quick "get to know you range session". This is only my second revolver as I am mainly a semi-auto pistol shooter. I must say that this JM was fantastic and is a keeper! .45 ACP is my favorite round, so I was waiting a long time for a .45...

Have you guys had any problems with the trr8 barrel getting loose?

Nice pic! The one at the shop is the plain Jane standard all black. But I think its now a moot point as they just brought in a new 627 pro series for the same price!

Hi Colt, Thanks for the response. Yup. This whole microstamping and DOJ approved list is causing a lot of trouble here in California. I was going to try and trade my model 41 at the dealer, but they wouldn't take it as it is no longer on the approved list.

I found a trr8 at my local shop. Its in 90% condition, one owner (the shop sold it to the original owner) and the shop supossedly sent it in to s&w to have it looked over before they put it on sale...everything was good to go. They are asking $950. I thought it was a decent price considering the...

That's very helpful. Thanks Tom! It looks like the range did a detail clean before they put it out for sale. But I didn't think about the mags. I will have to check the chamber face. Sounds like the 41 is a workhorse and a thing of beauty!

Thanks! I was also wondering if it is possible to "shoot out" a model 41 barrel? Is there any guidelines about the degradation of a size of a group (off a rest) that would show that it's time to change out the barrel?

Hi, I just picked up a used 5.5" (2006) and a 7" (2002) Model 41. They are in good used condition. They were range demo guns, so they were shooters and not safe queens. But they were not abused. They seem to function fine and nothing is obviously wrong after I field stripped it. But I...

great thanks!

I picked up a pair of model 41's that are new to me...one is the 5.5" with serial UBR7xxx and the other is a 7" with UBH0xxx can anyone help me out with a manufacture date? Thank you in advance!

Hi Gang, New here and new to the revolver world. I have only been a semi auto guy but finally made the jump! I just purchased my first revolver a 617 and love it. The only thing I don't love is the sights. After doing some searching, I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one who has some...
