First, what size (K,L,N) grips fit it? Does it use the same moonclips as the N frames? Haven't shot it yet, but bought some 410 #6's and some WW 45acp to play with. Hope it does well with the 45acp as I plan to use it alot. Oh, is there any concern about flame cutting seeing as how these guns have an aliminum or scandiam frame?

K/L Frame Grips fit The Governor.

My Governor shares moonclipped .45 ACP ball ammo with my 625JM - same size 'clips. Big and slow rounds, like 230gr FMJ .45 ACPs and 255gr LSWC .45 Colts, don't flame cut like hyper-velocity lite weight Magnums, thus, no inset steel plate under the topstrap/over the b/c gap. I haven't bought more .410's since the first week I owned my Governor - last June. The novelty quickly wore off - it's 'reason to be' here was the .45 ACP usage - and that's likely been 75% of it's use; most of the rest being .45 Colt.

The easiest rounds to load/unload by hand in the Ranch Products moonclips (They make them for S&W.) are Starline and Remington/UMC brass. RP clips are best ordered direct - they were $35/100 shipped. I prefer Brownell's nutdriver-style demooner. Enjoy your Governor. BTW, mine hits coincident POI/POA at 7-12 yd with 230gr FMJ 'ball' ammo in .45 ACP; similarly, it hits there with 250/255gr LRNFP/LSWC .45 Colts - and 250gr Speer Gold Dots, too.

PS The S&W Accessories Hogue X-frane .500 Magnum monogrips fit the Governor, too. They pad the backstrap - lessen the felt recoil.

Yeah technically they call it the "Z" frame but it takes K&L grips.

Just got back from shooting it, and it did fine. One thing, is it normal for the fired 45acp brass to have a slight swell to them out of these guns? The #6 shot was fun to bounce around an old pot, but at 50 cents a shot, its too expensive to "play" with.

I'd have to check some of my old brass to see but I don't doubt that it's normal, they should eject with ease however. Yeah like Stainz said above, the 410 fun wears off soon but I still prefer having the option of shooting it. I also bought mine mainly as a .45 platform, both LC and ACP, the fact that it can shoot .45 LC+P was the seller for me as I wanted a bear gun for camping but the 410 also gives you a snake gun.

Do those grips glow in the dark?

Hi all. I just picked up my Governor yesterday. It is my first revolver in my collection. Most of my autos are .45 ACP so it made sense. Plus it looks awesome. I haven't had the opportunity to shoot it yet but I am anxious. I will be shooting mostly .45 ACP as that is what I have, but I can't wait to try the other two rounds. Just curious. How is it?????
