I just started out with a short colt the load I have been using that works well for me is 2.9 grs. of TightGroup with a 160 gr. Bayou set at 1.160 that's in my 627 PC I'm sure there are other loads that will work well also

I just enjoy doing little projects like this I'm sure Bob would have been happy to fix me up

when I ordered my North Mountain I got the wrong size rods 1/2" so I made some new ones out of some 5/8" al. round stock I'm not much of a lathe operator but I did ok my brother has a metal shop so its nice to have a mill and lathe and all the cool toys that I can use

I went with a north mountain it was highly recommended to me by a guy that I have great respect for that shoots revolver but don't tell Mike that lol

just ordered a Speed Beez for my 627 PC $73 to the door

I just ordered a Speedbees holster for my 627 5" think it was around $84 shipped to the door it was recommended by several shooter's

When you guys talk about the Apex hammer are you referring to the evolution and what do you thing about the TK skeletonized hammer this will be for my 627 pc Ron

I think I saw that most are using a lee crimp die along with a good set of 9mm dies you going to have that going for the next indoor match ? Ron

Great news Zac you going to try and make one of the indoor matches Skip is shooting his Revolver good way to get some shooting in with out freezing Ron

I see he is signed up all ready I looked up the range not to bad of a trip mite see if Mike wants to pal up with me or anyone else from around here Ron

I may try it that's a ways off but sounds fun I need to see if any of the guys up here are going hope you can make it to the Big Dawg Ron

I do the best I can two years ago I spent my 60th birthday in the ER had 4 blockages two 90% two 75% next day I had two stints put in. I now have diabetes and diabetic neuropathy it sucks cuz my feet are on fire all the time and don't have hardly any feeling in them hard for me to run at all but I don't try to let it stop me I really enjoy shooting USPSA even if I don't have very fast times I have fun life is to short I am going to enjoy my self as much as I can before the worms bring my mail I hope to meet you some time at one of the shoots Ron

I here you I just turned 62 and I may get the SDM on top of the Dawson getting old isn't for the weak Ron

I took everyone's advice and got a BMT mooner and have no regrets its built very well and works like a champ Ron

looks to be the DX I removed it after adding a drop of oil now I need to get a new front sight the Dawson looks great to me

Thanks that is good to know I will see witch one I have Ron

I have a silly question where do you find a pin punch that small and witch direction do you push it out I want to replace my FS on my 627 Ron

Looks great love the 19's glad to see you hung on to it I regret selling the one I had just fell on very hard times Ron

I hate that little spot it should be called the " taint " cuz it taint barrel and taint frame Ron

I will pm you my email and cell number Mike Thanks for the help in advance

I just picked up the same gun your asking about and yes you will need to do plenty of work to it to make it match ready all the info. the guys here tell you to do is what needs to be done not sure how handy you are with working on your guns there are some great videos on you tube that can help you do some of the work your self if your not into that find a good gunsmith that works on revolvers or send it into a pro shop like TK Ron

Thanks Mike, Skip and some of the others have been pointing me down the right path I may pick on you from time to time for some advice Ron

all guns are different I run a 13# rebound spring and a reduced power rib spring in my 686 with no problems but a extended firing pin or longer screw should fix your light strikes
