S&W Performance Center Model 627, 2.625 inch barrel, 8 round cylinder, 357/38
Ever want an impractical gun just cuz you want it? Well, I have and here it is.
“Feelin’ lucky punk? Well, do ya?”
I have a 327 Nightguard sitting beside me- basically the scandium aluminum version of your 627 but with fluted cyliders. I want an 8 shot stainless or blued 627 with fluted cylinders and a 3” barrel. very hard to find.
I think Clint Eastwood had one of those in the movie Blood Work.
I’ve got other 4-6 inch Smiths. I did get this hoping to conceal it. But, what the hell, I’ll enjoy it anyway.
I have one as well. Love it.
I came very close to getting the 327 scandium 21oz snubbie. I had a 7 round titanium snubbie that was too ammo sensitive. I’ll bet yours is a real thrill to light off.
Wheelguns ain’t my thing, but that is NICE!
It’s a POS.../S
Should pack a punch. 125gr JHP for the win. And if you miss al l8 shots, the muzzle flash and blast should scare ‘em to death.
Round butt L-Frame?
MagnaPort time.
Oh and very nice BTW.
I do have to comment- because of the reflection, I couldn’t quite read the S+W logo for sure. ( I guessed at it correctly). I think that you made a great choice.
I like it. I liked my 3 inch Lew Horton M29 too. Called it my concealable snub nose N Frame.
The rubber grips make it very comfortable to shoot actually. I also have a talo 686+ 3” and 629 talo 3” both with wood grips. The 629 is particularly brutal- it definitely needs rubber grips. I have one of those M&P 340 .357s too. It feels like holding on to an M80 firecracker-probably equivalent to or slightly worse than my 500 magnum. all fun guns though.
You need a song to go with that...
That's still doable- just hang a couple of these from Your shirt pocket.
Everybody will be looking at Your chest;)
They'll never know what hit them.
Now about this Speedo thing...
just got a Ruger Match Champion,,
going to light it off tomorrow.
Very nice!
Whatever it’s faults, it is not impractical. It’s very functional, very deadly. I don’t think that it will ever misfire or jam.
