crb Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 So we were at the gun shop today, dropping a shotgun off to be shipped. I decided to pickup some ammo for the wife's 629 that she carries. Anyway we sat around talking with the owner and the associate and I saw a S&W case on top of the display case. They were busy with customers (small shop) and I opened the S&W case low and behold a beautiful S&W was inside. Wifie bought me apparently a Birthday, Anniversary, Christmas, and maybe even a Valentine's day gift all wrapped into one beautiful firearm.Smith and Wesson Performance CenterModel 627-5 .357 Mag V8With a rail and Sig Sauer Red Dot attached.Firearm was barely used.Shot her (gun not wife) at the range the sight wasn't sighted in so I took it back in and the dealer adjusted it for me. Once I got used to the sight I was stacking the rounds. Wife as been considering ordering me a custom gun, but hated to spend $2,000 + and this just happened to be there. Just so excited I thought I would share. Looked up prices on gunbroker and apparently we did well especially with the Sig sight mounted.MY WIFE IS AWESOME!

CoolWhip Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 That is awesome! Sweet looking gun. I am happy to hear a nice story about a woman. BeeGreen and Scruit's stories were so sad. This is the kind of thing my awesome woman would do as well. Take good care of the gun and the wife! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayjie15 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Very cool gun. It is nice when the ladies change things up and buy something for us every once in a while. How much did that guy set you back if you don't mind me asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exarch Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Huh?It was a joke, but seriously if you look at the 1st pic you can see a fingernail size imprint in the wood. I suppose thats normal though?I never pay attention to the guns I shoot outside the army. Hell I dont even care for guns unless I go to the range with my buddies so im a gun noob I suppose(unless its an m16,.50Cal, saw, 240b, at4, mk19 I have no clue) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exarch Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Huh?Nvm... Just saw it was used, I thought it was new, so the indint is prob from previous owner, also looked like a couple scuffs on the other side by the screw behind the trigger just above the grip, and a couple other minor.scuffs. Might of been the glare of the pic though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fyi this is one of the good guns its not intended for carry by evil CCW holders, and even came with a coupon for skittles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a different lube? I heard of some people not using lube at all even(I cant imagine that being a good thing, all though they say they keep it real clean) I always wiped down the outside of my m16 with clp aswell to give it that nice shiny look.Well I sure as hell wouldnt want to be on the other end of that bad boy, unless it was shooting skittles at me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kawi kid Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 You will be very surprised. Smoothed my glock out tremendously. And it took a lot of the squeak out of its cycling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 If glocks were not junk they would not need smoothed out or have squeaks!! LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
