45ACP S&W Revolver?

[at_liberty]

Just an update. Decided to order the 625JM yesterday, cash price was 839 with the total coming to 890 out the door. It should make for an excellent IDPA revolver in ESP however to be honest I would have preferred a 4 inch 610 but those have become considerably more expensive since S&W dropped them from production.

I recommend only jacketed bullets or to try coated, the latter of which I haven't done yet. I use lead in my 625PC which has the appropriate rifling. My 625JM leads like crazy, even with Lasercast.

The 325 NIGHT GUARD is a great revolver, wasn't impressed with the original factory grips. These pictured Rosewood Combat Grips were ordered from S&W. I have several full moon clips as well as 1/3 rd moon clips. I did also obtain some 45 Auto Rim brass and loaded them with Hornady XTP 200 grain. Nice to have that option but Auto Rim factory rounds are not very plentiful.

Auto rims are always a nice option to have.

I use 200 gr. plated in mine for that reason. Does the trick. I was using a 20ga. brush to get the lead out. Bob

What do people think of the gold dot front sight that seems to be standard on the 625 JM? How does it compare to the Hi Viz? I am thinking of getthing a JM, but I have not seen one in person.

This is not in person, but what it looks like. I really am glad I got it. Pic makes it look yellow, but is green. It installs in about 30 seconds. Bob
