Is this a question?
That happens to be one of my grail guns.

I believe the M25 Model of 1989 was made in two engineering changes, the -7 and -9, but I could be mistaken.....

 

[TwoPoundPull]

Yes, it is a question. Was not wearing my reading glasses when I took the gun for a test drive.

This a 25-7 45 cal Model of 1989
Stock is Herrett's not original.

Joni Do you really like those grips or did you just get a great deal on them?

 

[Joni_Lynn]

I found a grip that fits my hand, does a superb job of distributing recoil and looks good to boot.
I really like them. All of them.

Lots of them.

Rob:

There were indeed -7 & -9 versions of this gun. I have both and they are identical except for the length of the stop notches ! Very difficult to tell apart unless they are side by side.

Joni_Lynn, what model grips are those? I think I need a set like that on my #58, as the service stocks do not fit my hand well. Thank you.

 

[Joni_Lynn]

They're Herrett's Jordan Trooper model.

It is indeed.

This is the pistol I take to the range when I want to feel good about my marksmanship - it's a laser.

25-7 with ugly, but very comfortable grips !

[GLL]

25-9 with not-so-original magnas !

Jerry

 

[Joni_Lynn]

Those are very nice.

25-7 with ugly, but very comfortable grips ! Smiler

I prefer to think of those as "using grips". I have Pachmayr's on nearly all of my revolvers.

Here's a picture of a somewhat "different" .45 Model of 1989:

One of my most used revolvers. Along with the 4" JM Special these things shoot EXTREMELY well.

Another look at a 45 CAL MODEL OF 1989 (625-4) 5".

 

[TwoPoundPull]

Thanks everyone, I have one model 25 now, an older P&R , I guess another would be twice as nice.

 

[Muley Gil]

an older P&R

Better look again. Only rimfires and magnums were recessed. Also, on a M25-2, if it were recessed, you couldn't fire .45 ACPs in half moon clips.

I bought this 5 inch 625-4 Model of 1989 today. $450 at a local shop with 5 moon clips, case, and papers. I look forward to shooting it tomorrow.
