I haven't gotten the chance to shoot her yet, but I am chomping at the bit!

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

That is a beautiful gun, and eight rounds to boot! I have about the same invested in my Jim Clark Custom .45.

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

She is an absolute beauty!

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

One FINE looking Smith & Wesson!

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

Nice! I didn't know they made an 8-shot in .357.

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

dang, there's another gun I need now... she's a beauty

don't forget some speed strips and safariland speedloaders!

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

You know, I spend all of my money on 1911s but that makes me want one of those......hmmm

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

Man, that is wicked. Didn't know there's one. Now I want one ya friggin teaser. :D

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

hey, did the pistol come with a S&W screwdriver? just curious if they still come with their new pistols

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

That is one sweet wheel gun. I just may have to do some shopping around now.

It actually did, and 2 sets of grips, and 3 moonclips.

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

I looked this revolver up at my suppliers and they show it with thinner wood (combat) grips than what yours has. I like your grips better.

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

It came with the grips you pictured and a set of Rubber Hogue conversion grips. But I am a revolver addict with about 60 revolvers; so, I have boxes of grips, holsters, speed loaders, etc!!

I prefer wood grips but the round butt grips that were on it looked odd with the 5" barrel, so I put on some Round to Square Altamont Conversion grips. Those are the ones in the photo.

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

Thats what I thought. Either that or I thought they may have shipped some earlier with those grips. I prefer your grips for sure. I will bet thats gonna be a shooter.

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

nice gun, I want one!

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

Drooling over that one! Love the grips too; I haven't got to fire one yet, just fondled. One of the best lookin wheel guns ever produced IMO. Nice buy :bow:

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

That is a must have gun. I have shot those and they point nice for me. They fit my hand and just feel good. I like the grips and that is a nice home protection piece IMO. And a nice rabbit gun.

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

Thanks guys! I already have four 5 star speed loaders, a range block, and a S&W PC holster on the way.

Here are the loaders and the holster:

Re: I finally got myself an 8-shot 357!!

Real nice set up. I wouldnt mind one myself....I am not crazy about the retention strap on the holster, but I do like that style of holster....
