I had a similar malfunction in my 617. It was all due to me installing a lighter trigger return spring by Wolff. I installed a pound heavier spring and the problem went away.

Want to buy a used hammer assembly for a K Frame that has the frame mounted firing pin. It's going in my 66-8. Please PM if you have one for sale. Thanks

If your eyes are anything like mine, they have more trouble picking up the front sight as I get older. I have found that the addition of a fiber optic front sight makes sight acquisition faster and my groups smaller. To test this I took two Glock 43's, one with a fiber optic front sight and...

Thanks Pizza Bob. I use my right, strong hand, to exclusively load my wheel guns. I wasn't sure if IDPA rules allows you to have two speed loader pouches in front of your holster. I know they are specific about only two magazine pouches for semis. How many speed loader pouches will they...

I have shot one IDPA match in SSP Division to get my feet wet. I enjoyed it and I am now going to shoot in the revolver division, because I am shooting semis in other competitions. I was curious what setups some of you may be using for it. And also any clarification on where you can carry...

75Vette, it is Quadraported. Had it done by Mag-na-port and not only did they do a fantastic job, but it truly does take a significant amount of upward recoil away. I also have my 66-8 ported and it makes 125 grain .357, feel like .38. I am definitely sold on ported revolver barrels

I can speak very highly of the Vortex Viper 6 MOA and the Vortex Venom 3 MOA. I have hundreds of rounds of full power, 158 grain .357 Magnum through my 627-5, using a Weig-A-Tinny rail. I haven't had to adjust it since sighting it in. The time displayed on the timer is a plate rack at 10...

Mine is definitely one of my favorites. I have tried several different loads in it, and Federal Bulk Pack ammo is the cleanest I have found. Stay away from Remington Golden Bullets, they are the worst. Enjoy yours!

My Dad's old Model 60 I disassembled my Dad's old worn Model 60 no dash, and used Mothers on it. Took my time and repeated the process three times. I think it came out looking good. A lot better than the worn and scratched exterior it had before.

I think that is an excellent price. If you don't want it, someone else definitely will. I have four K Frames ranging from a 66-2 to a 66-8. I would not turn another one down at that price.

I am selling a used, but in very good condition Lasermax Model LMS1141P, guide rod laser for a Glock 17 or 22. I know that it will work in a generation 2 or 3 Glock 17 or 22. It will NOT work in a generation 4 or 5. It's in the original box and has the paperwork with it. It pulses and is not...

I did some research on different .22 loads and how dirty each of them were. According to the article, Federal Bulk Packs were the cleanest shooting. After shooting over 4,000 rounds through my 617, I would completely agree. I will never shoot Remington Golden Bullets through it again. They...

Thanks Nick B. I'm a full time firearms instructor and law enforcement trainer. I get the benefit of some time on the range.

You've got some great replies back to this question. I use a Wolff spring kit in my 627-5 Performance Center gun. This revolver had a nice factory trigger, but I wanted it to be a little better. I also use this gun for bowling pins. Go ahead and purchase the kit that was suggested above from...

617 I absolutely love mine! I own four K Frame S&W revolvers, and this 617 is the most fun to shoot. I bought it new over a year and a half ago and have over 4,000 rounds through it. It sees a lot of 10 yard plate rack runs. Rim fire is very dirty, especially in a revolver. The Federal...

My 66-8 It's with me almost all the time.

That’s very cool!
