625-7 3inch 45 Colt

[boatswainsmate]

Hello All,
I picked my new to me Beauty today after being wait listed for the first time in my life. I know it's was commissioned by Lew Horton in 1999 but that's about it. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Boats

Congrats,that's all I can tell you,an it's a beauty.

Be still my heart. I have the mountain gun, but that is a beauty. Many years ago when those LH's first hit the market I was buying them as they were released. Then the family hit some hard times and I had to sell them all off. I still wake up in a cold sweat every now and then thinking about it.

Yes, that is a beautiful revolver. I've been looking for a 5" 625 in the same caliber, very hard to find. I do have a real nice 4" 25-5 in .45 Colt and 625-2 5" in .45 ACP. They're both a real pleasure to shoot and I know you'll enjoy your new find.

That's actually a lot like mine. Product Code 148121, Spec. Ord. 8201, Serial Number CCV44xx. Shown here with it's four and five inch buddies.
Not to mention the ACP versions.

625 3"

Good deal finding this 625.
I do not have a 625 3", but I do have a 657 3" in beautiful brushed stainless, with nearly identical grips.
They were also a special limited run from the late 1980s.
I don't remember the dealer's name, but they were listed in Shotgun News for $245. I didn't really have the money to spend, but knew they were very special and I did it anyway. The grips were stunning and a real plus when I got the gun in my hands.

Nice looking piece. I was amazed at how close that bead blast finish look compared to a Metaloy industrial hard chrome finish. And great looking stocks.

This is actually a 19-4 with a Metaloy finish.

Congratulations on a great purchase. With the right ammo you will find it to be very accurate.

Here's my 625-7 I bought new in 2000. The grips are Ahrends maple and I replaced the original thumbpiece with an earlier version. I still have the original combat grips.

I've always wanted a prelock 3" 45 Long Colt

I'd probably sell my LH overrun 29-3 3" or trade it for one. 45LC is more versatile than 44 mag IMO

I managed to find the matching holster on Flea-Bay for mine

 

[625-7]

Seems I may have one of them hidden around here somewheres....

 

[Pine_Worker]

Good looking 45!

625-7 Lew Horton Special 45 Colt

Here's mine! Love the way it looks and shoots. I put some nice Culinas on it, of course. It took me nearly a year to find one!
