Adding some .430 pills to your range diet is a prescription for good times and great groups .You guys are making it difficult to shoot only .358 projectiles.
Right now, there are quite a few for sale on gunbroker. Of course most have a hefty starting bid or asking price. Usually there are not many on gunbroker and never any 4”.I searched for a 4” version for months and was finally forced to “settle” for a 6.5” to scratch the 624 itch. It happens to be a no dash, ca. 1985 and is pictured with its much larger brother (460V).
That slim barrel profile on 24/624, 27 and 25, makes them IMO the most balanced and beautiful DA revolvers. Take a look at 25 with 6.5" barrel https://www.smith-wesson.com/product/model-25 , just 42.5 oz.
Also, I would like to see 6.5" slim barrel on 29/629, and especially 57/657.
…S&W revolvers should have full under lugs and round butts…
…Moonclips rule!…
S&W revolvers should have full under lugs...
The weight is the reason why I will sell S&W 686-3. I wish 686 has the same barrel profile as 66. I was even considering getting one 66, 6", but after finding problems with rear end of the barrel (cracks), decided to go with get Security Six. Friend tried to convince me to go with M14, but I wanted strong, reliable, stainless 357 Magnum, with reasonable weight, and in that respect, there is nothing better than Security Six.On this, we will disagree. Maybe, with hard recoiling cartridges but not on a carry piece, too much extra, unnecessary weight....
