Nice,what I’ve learned it’s always good to keep the original Box/Case that gun comes in. Put it away you always have for resale if ever you wanted to sell it..

I've got about 5k thru mine. My fav gun to take to the range. I'd had a 629 for years and maybe fired 10 shots double action the whole time I owned it. I probably havent shot more than 10 single action in the 627. Love it.

Great gun! Good video! I love my 627 pro. I changed the grip to wood Altamont and the front site to a fiber optic. I found a leather holster from Galco that fits it well. The Holster model is DA0126.

Nice gun. Love Smiths. Just fyi Hammer block safety is used on Smiths. Not a transfer bar system. As far as I am concerned, hammer block is the superior system. More expensive to manufacture though.

Very utilitarian gun. Looks good and being an N frame, you know it’s going to last no matter how many hot magnum loads you put it through. It’s a work horse and one that hits with authority. 8 shots of 357 magnum is some serious firepower. There’s the Coonan 357 & the desert eagles but you sacrifice reliability with them. And the desert eagle in particular is way too big and bulky not to mention the coonan has grips that are only made for giant’s hands. This gun truly is a king that has it all. Power, capacity, reliability, style and substance. 4 inches is the perfect barrel length too for duty carry or OWB carry. 5 inch ones (627 performance centre, TRR8, R8) I find are too long for carry and the 327 & 627 performance centre snubbies are too short to take real advantage of the 357 magnums. This is the best 8 shot 357 magnum N frame revolver S&W makes and i dare say it’s probably the best one in the world. It’s a hidden gem no one seems to know about. Only thing I can think of that could compete with this in my books is the 327 PD, but with its scandium frame and titanium cylinder, you sacrifice durability at the cost of weight savings. Not to mention they’re no longer made. This thing in comparison is a stainless steel tank. Doesn’t get more durable than this thing. All Hail to the true King of the revolver world and let none dispute it.

That funny color on your trigger and hammer is called “color case hardening”means those are forged parts and yes the best parts in my option for revolvers. Much better than “MIM”parts for sure!

Less than 15 seconds to hand load the bullets into the gun. 2 minutes to force bullets into the stubborn moon clip. If i'm going to the range, the stupid clip is staying home.

TK customs sells the tool for loading and unloading that’s the price of using moon clips! You don’t have to use them there should be proper head space for just loading the cylinder. You will ruin the moon clips if using pliers!

Beautiful revolver. I do wish the site adjustment screws were star or at least Phillips head rather than flat. Looks too easy to slip and scratch something.

Your honest review is appreciated! I didn’t hear the price you paid. But, Good Job!

I had to give a like just for the ff8 reference lol.

That gun is not heavy try a DESERT EAGLE 44 MAG or LAR GRIZZLY 45 WIN MAG now they are hand CANNONS i know OWNED both Earl 90s but the 45 win mag is more power then 44 mag

LEATHER HOLSTER

Are you even 21 years of age?

Biggest draw on this model is the 8 shot capacity. I far prefer the more traditional shinier stainless finishes. Not a fan of the matte stainless like this one has.

Last 3 revolvers from Smith, didn't even make it to the range before having to be sent back to the factory. I talked to one of their repair folks, asked if they even had any quality control folks....said "nope, we'd rather send you a new one, than waste the time checking every firearm".....buyers be ware!
