S&W 625 vs. NC LE Qualification Course

Post by Hrfunk » Sun May 12, 2019 7:36 am

Good morning all! Below is a link to the most recent installment in my series on Law Enforcement qualification course challenge videos. In this one, I'm wheelgunning my way through the North Carolina course with my S&W 625. To see how it fares, check out the video. Then be sure to let me know your thoughts!

enjoyed your NC Qualification video .... back when I was an instructor in NC's prison system a Smith 357 was our service revolver .... the course we fired had the same distances but that is where the similarity ends .... thanks for posting your video, it brought back some good memories

Nice recovery on that spent brass ejection glitch. Those mandatory reloads to me seem a challenge to execute well, but you smoothly went through that one.

Enjoying these quals, and I hope all 50 come through for you. And really enjoy it when I watch revolver shooting. I'm a wheel gun lover, and all my handguns are revolvers.

Thanks!

When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king. The palace becomes a circus.

You've just got to love a good wheelgun! They have been doing the job for nearly two centuries and they still do it just as well as when they started!

I had a 625 years ago, but as a young fella with four kids, I ended up trading it off to another Officer for a more suitable gun for my needs for PPC. It is one of the guns I wouldn't mind having back in the safe. There are a few.

Good job.

Nice work, as usual, Howard!

Entertaining and educational, not to mention a demonstration of some great shooting! Best of luck in the "50 State Challenge Series", and please keep us updated.
