To the top.

We have a Scheels opening here in April, 2024. I can't wait.

I shot my P210 Target some yesterday. Love that gun.

For sale in Boise, Idaho. New Old Stock cylinder for a S&W 625 revolver. I bought this from a reseller for a project that ended up not happening. Never installed in a frame. Look carefully to make sure it will work in your frame. I do not know what dash numbers this will work with, but I...

Here's a shot of my '19 Grand Sport doing what it does best....

ATF in a small squeeze bottle works nicely. But I do have to second that most anything handy will work fine. It's not a high speed machine.

I measured the cylinder bores and they are all in the 0.480" range (+/- 0.0005"). Both guns measure the same, if anything the 5" "good gun" is a bit tighter. No holes that are grossly off the rest. I think I will do some more experimenting with factory ammo and a variety of clips to see...

Yeah, I have the two 625's and two 1911's. Going to A/R means different ammo for one of the four, which doesn't appeal to me that much.

Using A/R cases may be just the ticket - great idea that I hadn't considered. One gun with moon clips, the other with A/r cases. Or maybe just A/R cases in both.....hmmmm It is interesting that 500 Starline A/R cases cost about the same as the new cylinder....

An ebay seller has a couple of new cylinder assemblies for $130 + shipping. I wonder what the odds are that one would fit my revolver?

Good idea. Measuring opposite holes in each cylinder, outside to outside, using my Starrett dial caliper. The "bad" revolver: Pair 1 - 1.555" Pair 2 - 1.553" Pair 3 - 1.560" The "good" revolver: Pair 1 - 1.566" Pair 2 - 1.563" Pair 3 - 1.566" So the bad revolver has a smaller diameter hole...

I have two 625-3's, one 4" and one 5". The 5" shoots great and is very accurate. The 4" shoots well but has a finicky cylinder. Ammo in moon clips that drops into the 5", will hang up about 1/4" out on the 4". I can seat the clip but it takes a lot of pushing. This happens with multiple...

I bought mine a few months ago and have run ~50 rounds through it, with no problems. It's been 100% using FMJ ammo. I need to try some Hornady Critical defense in it but so far I am confident that it will work.

Only way to tell for sure would be to load the same components and crimp some both ways, then shoot them to see. But from my experience, no. I roll crimp all revolver rounds, except 45 ACP. I taper crimp the 45's because that's how my dies are set up for my 1911.

The real source for green energy. We should be building them all over the US.

Me too. Insert mag and chamber the top round.

This is the answer right here. That's why you bought the selection of pins in the first place.

Thank you for the sanity check. That is why I come here.
