Short barrels, big bores, lots of power!
Custom S&W 625 45 Long Colt, 45 ACP, 460 Rowland, 45 Winchester Magnum  Custom S&W 629 44 Magnum  S&W 629 Combat Master 44 Magnum  S&W 325 PD 45 ACP  S&W 696 44 Special  This last one, well, it's not quite a snubby, but the barrel is under 4" (3 7/8"), and it's not quite a big bore... S&W 610 10mm  I've posted all these pics before, but I was bored so I thought I'd start a new thread  |

I REALLY like that first piece. Mind if I ask what it set you back?

Dude, this thread should be labeled GOTD (gun of the day).
Its nearly gun porn. Those are some beautiful wheelguns. Especially the 696. |

The original owner was asking $750, which was about 1/2 what he had in it. I traded him a Para P-14 LDA with 3 mags and $165 for it. Let's just say I got a good deal  |

 This is my S&W M296 with Farrar grips. You know when this 18.5 OZ revolver goes off. Regards, Richard:D |

Ok, if 3 7/8 is a snubbie and 10mm is a big bore -

I included the 10mm because it's pretty much equivalent to a 41 Mag. And I have no clue why S&W is shipping the 3 7/8" barrel models. Perhaps they had a slight error in the production and ended up with these "not quite 4"" setups. It's only in the 10mm guns, AFAIK. |

I think it does a little better if you compare velocities from short barrels. I'm launching 200gr. XTP's @ 1200fps. |

Nice Belly Guns!
I sold off my 4" S&W model 25 45LC to a buddy to buy an UZI.

Very cool, looks good.
Was there any secret or did you just file/grind it to shape? The reason I ask is because I really want a 610 to shoot .40s in. as well as 10mms. 96Ag |

No secret. Just a belt sander and polishing wheels (I make Knives). Be carefull not to get the barrel to hot. I'm not sure if that would hurt it or not. I just kept it cooled to where it didn't stars to burn my fingers.

Mmmmmmmmm....610. .41 Mag ballistics only better because of MOON CLIPS!!!! I'm really thinking of trying to find either a 610, 629 or 696.....

Here is a older "Fitz Special" type of conversion. Gun dates to pre-war (1931-ish), but it was probably butchered just afterwards.
 Edited to add: It's a 44 Special 3rd Model Hand Eject. |

Obviously the remote snap button is mounted to trigger. Why else would she have her finger on it? |

It's all done with mirrors, if it makes any difference. I actually thought it was a pretty good picture.
BTW, what is that thing you are shoving in your mouth in your avatar? FITTER

Obviously, that's Ogre saying "NERDS! NERDS! NERDS!" into a microphone in LHD's avatar...  But... I meant to post/ask this in another thread the other day. Does anyone else (after being on here a LOT) use their peripheral to identify posters, i.e., you become aware of who's posting without having to look left and focus on the avatar? I'm able to do that most of the time, but I swear LHD's avatar looks just like Pangea's ("Buckwheat") avatar to my peripheral vision even thoughthe two images bear no resemblance - I had to do a double-take in that other thread more than once. Anybody else, or just me? (Or am I spending too much time here?...  )
