heh...

Greatest revolver EVAR!!11!!!

I own one with the five inch barrel in .357 person I bought it from had slicked up the action. Points extremely well and the trigger in DA snaps through so fast it feels like a single action if you do it right.

Excellent revolver! There was a similar thread within a month or so ago. Do a search. Wasn't aware that there was a six inch version, my five inch is quite muzzle heavy(good), but another inch might be too much of a good thing.

 

[Dr.Who]

I have a 5 inch PC version. great balance and feels just like my 625 4 inch PC... I enjoy it....

 

[Smith & Wesson Man]

Nice shooter! I have had mine for awhile. I put some nice wood hogue grips on mine and plan on putting a red dot on it also. It everyones attention when I pull it out of my range bag

Excellent gun. I've had mine for a couple of years and still shoot the daylights out of it. Liked it so much I sent it back for laser engraving.
It's got Nill grips now, also very nice.

Can't someone please say at least one bad thing about the 627 or I will be forced to buy one!

 

[kel]

Sorry..

I really can't. It's something every .357 lover needs to own. I think it is the perfect revolver due to the extra capacity and shootability. Every bit the equal of the 1911.

8-shooters....

...can be blown up more easily if you double charge the handload! There...that's the only bad thing I can think of.

I bought a PC 627 not long ago. In a word - awesome. Quickly became my favorite shooter.

 

[Guy B. Meredith]

Yeah, I can say something bad about the 627--they're no challenge to shoot well. If you want a challenge you'll have to go elsewhere.

When acquiring targets in action pistol competition the heavy gun moves slowly like a battleship whereas the M66 is part of my hand. Nice to have the 8 rounds, though.

Buy it anyway or you'll have regrets.

 

[Dr.Who]

OK, only one bad thing, The 627 is not as quick to load when compared to a 625. The two extra rounds, the length of the cases, and the loose fit of the rounds on the moonies, work against the speed load a bit.... But it is not really allowed in IDPA anyway.... So no big deal....

 

[S&WIowegan]

627s

are not useful in IPSC either since you can only fire six rounds from each cylinderful. You could use a 627 in Open and Production classes though

They're not available in blue. That's the only negative that comes to mind.

 

[GrandmasterB]

But they do come in "Sexy" tu-tone
