Actually it is a Factory original two tone TRR8. 130 or 160 of these were made in 2007. I can not recall the exact number.



There was also a Pinto 627 that was manufactured in 2004 with similar production numbers. I replaced the factory supplied grips with an old set of factory combats



I think I would have preferred if the cylinder was fluted on this 627. The sights have been changed out to the LPA fiber optic front and rears, and the factory supplied grips on this one were replaced with a set of JM style grips. I have a second cylinder for this one chambered in 9x23 Winchester. This allows it to also safely chamber and fire 38 SUPER, 38ACP, 356TSW, 9x21, 9MM Parrabellum, 380ACP and others

Beautiful! So which one do you like better?

S&W model 29-3 8in. Model 629-6 6in. Model 686 plus pro series 5 inch. Awesomeness. Ahrends grips on last two. Just got into shooting about 18mo ago. Started with revolvers, 686. Also have p229 and 227. Nice pics guys.

After many years of searching, here's an 18-3.



An s&w 65-5 Ladysmith w/o the ladysmith on the side plate.



696 ND



Just a couple for now.

Revolvers are the hot ticket for me too.

There's something about a magnum revolver.

I took my Smith and Wesson M29 .44 Magnum up to my uncle's hunting cabin. He took one look at it and said "Behind that, you don't have to fear anything."

There sure are some pretty revolvers in this thread. I need to start reloading because shooting .38/.357 is expensive especially compared with 9mm.
I love the clean lines of my Model 10-5 with the pencil barrel and my 3" 13 and 65. My Detective Specials are fun to shoot and beautiful.I'll post pics later.

Let see if I can dig up some photos of my favorite revolvers:

Mine too!

How about some Pythons, 1963 (first year) snub and 1978 4"

It's been four hours already, I'm going to the emergency room.

Took me a second but that's funny.

I like my Talo 686+ so much I bought another one.
Sent the new off to S&W for a polish and Master Revolver Action Package.

One goes to my future SIL, the other will be given to my son, eventually.
