    Model 1955 five screw

    5 screw The price is very fair for what it is. I have owned two of these at different times. Highly collectible and super shooters. These have a different main spring.

    model 625-6

    625 grips The N frame round will work fine. I have aset of Altamont rose wood on one of my 625`s that fit perfectly. I had an extra pair of combat grips from a 629 dx that were too large for the 625. The only N frame exception I ever found. Earl

    625 finish question

    625 Yes The matt finish is the easiest to do. Roll marks should survive. Etched markings would have to be done at the factory. Easy to go back to the original. I have two 625`s both with 5 inch barrels. I don`t dispute that the factory made other lengths . I believe a 3 inch would be rare. I...

    .38 HBWC loaded backwards--do they stabilize?

    HBWC I used the Speer HBWC in 60`s to duplicate factory mid range match. I met a cop with A Bodyguard loaded with reverse wadcutter so I decided to try it. Not much to recommend. Years later one of my match guns was an M27. Loaded the the HBWC in 357 brass with 3.0 gr Bullseye. The indoor...
