Do any of you folks have a new 627 PC? How was your trigger??
Yesterday I took my new 627PC to the range. It fired 100% and the accuracy seems to be good.
The Gun will be going back to Springfield when I receive the prepaid shipping label. This 627 with its supposed performance center action job, has the WORST double action trigger I have ever felt on a revolver. I have several N frames and 2 have had action jobs the rest have not, All are smooth as butter, the 627 PC is HORRIBLE.
Its clunky gritty, and uneven, I'm sure it didn't have any action or trigger work done to it what so ever. I called Smith and Wesson and complained and the label is on its way
The barrel is on straight, and the rifling looks good though. For a gun they list at $1200, you think they would have at least tried the trigger before they sent it out.
My other complaint with the gun is that it doesnt have the interchangeable front sight, the hole is there for the mechanism, but it has a gold bead sight that is pinned with a single flimsey roll pin. Apparently they changed this in the last year or so, because one I looked at last january had the interchangeable sight.
Very disappointing, especially since last year I bought a 22-4 used for $450, and it has a buttery smooth trigger and a wonderful blued finish.
BTW The reason I took delivery of it rather than leaving it at the shop, is that my club FFL ordered it for me, and I would have had to pay shipping to and from the wholesaler to return it, so I opted to keep it and send it to S&W myself. My price was $862 with overnight shipping. This is why I hesitate to buy any gun site unseen, or special order.
Do any of you folks have a new 627 PC? How was your trigger? The springs also seem very heavy on mine, so even with the action job was the trigger still heavy on yours??
