The 25 series is one of the great revolvers of all time. You can't go wrong with any of them. I have several. For carry they're bulky and heavy. For ANY other purpose they're just great.
I bought this PC 625-8 a couple of years ago and it is a wonderful shooter. It shoots groups just like the photo from Dale53.
It came with the laminated red, white and blue grips on it, but didn't like the way they fit my hand, so I put on these S&W American Pride ones instead.
