    M640 and M649 and Other 357Mags...Anyone Carry One??

    J frames Sebago, those are nice revolvers, nothing like a pair, I'll post a photo of my pair of 60's, and as you see, I am also a great fan of the factory stock grips and Tylers! I'll also post a photo of triplets... Hey, when you like something, ya' just plain like it. Nalajr, I sincerely...

    PROBLEMS with my S&W .357 686 Plus

    Smith & Wesson will make this right, most likely they will replace the entire gun. They replace a gun for me and it only had cosmetic defects, serious cosmetic defects but they replaced the entire gun. The entire gun industry is very busy, Smith is running 24/7 building guns. The longest I...

    M640 and M649 and Other 357Mags...Anyone Carry One??

    I don't remember where I found the link, but if you do a google search, you may be able to find a write up explaining why there is a velocity loss when shooting a .38 in a .357 gun. If you go to Buffalo Bore's website, you can view the velocities of their .38 Special "heavy" ammo through a...

    Quality of New Model 63's

    I have a 1990's Smith & Wesson 60 snub in .357, bought used, I checked carefully for defects, but didn't know about canted barrels when I bought it. Weeks after buying it I noticed the front sight looked funny, but when I'd check, I couldn't tell if it was my eyes or the gun. Long story short...

    Price check 317 AirLite

    I have the Centennial version of this gun, the S&W 43C, which has the enclosed hammer. The 43C is the .22 long rifle version of the 340PD/340 M&P and I paid $600 for the gun, new. I would not sell it, though it is double action only, it is a little jewel, a neat little gun. I bought the double...

    My modified "ultra snub" S&W Model 37

    Iggy, somebody very wise understood that deleting the barrel pin was best, you see, the barrel pin is very small, and if it falls out, it will be very hard to find if it falls, say, onto a carpet. Now, a barrel, that's big, if a barrel falls out, it's much easier to find. See? Sheer brilliance...

    My modified "ultra snub" S&W Model 37

    I just thought I'd share with you all my finished project. It is a highly modified S&W 37 that I altered so that I can either shoot it with the snub barrel, or when I'm really needing to go into "secret squirrel" mode when the SHTF, I can unscrew the barrel for an ultra compact highly...

    Firing 357 Magnum from short barrel

    Looks like the original question was more than answered but I guess I'll enjoy the pleasure of chiming in and adding my two cents. I own a Smith & Wesson 340PD and a 340 M&P, both with 1-7/8" barrels, 11.4 oz and 13.3 oz weight respectively. I have scoured the internet for real world chrono...

    SP101 or S&W 60-9

    My two cents I see this thread is a couple years old but I feel compelled to respond to fears about both the Smith and the Ruger being too light for comfortable .357 shooting. I own an 11 ounce Smith 340PD, I shoot .357 through it, the recoil is stout, maybe even severe is a good word for it...
