Default 325 Nightguard?

Any thoughts? I'm thinking of getting one.

I have had a 325NG for several months.

Let me also add that I have been shooting a Mod 25 in 45 ACP since the early 1970's.

So I do like the full Moon Clip concept, and I use Auto Rim brass a little as well.

My 325 NG has fired 100% of the time with full and 1/2 and 1/3rd moon clips.

It will shoot Remington 230gr Ball and 230 Golden Sabre HP with out clips.

However the other factory loads I have tried will sometimes not fire without the clips. From what I understand most all of the newer S&W 45 ACP,s are not reliable without the clips.

The gun is controlable with 230gr standard and 185 +P.

I like this "little" lightweight gun a lot.

They're not nightguards, but mine are light weight 45 revolvers. Check out my thread on page two (or three) with the title above.

Pretty accurate I'd say.

Accuracy was good. Minute of eyeball at 15 yards.

It hits spot on with standard 230gr Ball and HP.

No problem hitting the "steel" on a standard plate rack at 25 yards, I guess the plates are 7 to 8" diameter.

That is as far as I have shot it.

If you like S&W N frames, and like the 45 ACP, you will like the 325...

It is so light, and handy.

And with full moon clips, it reloads really fast, and fumble free.
