I had one of these and sold it to a friend, then replaced it with the 608. I love shooting these bad boys. I am getting comfortable with semis but will take a 357 round over a 9 mm any day of the week. Great video
The 357 round packs a big punch, I've started looking into the 10mm round for semi auto, it's pretty powerful too. It may become my standard soon. Thanks for watching the video!
I like both ngl. I have a s&w m39-2 in 9mm, absolutely love it. Thing is reliable as can be, and pretty damn accurate. That being said, I'm looking forward to getting into revolvers, I've just decided this is the model I'm probably gonna set aside money for. I'd just rather have something with a smooth double action, high energy, and very few moving parts to go wrong if some dirt gets in there while I'm bow hunting or something like that
This is a solid budget revolver, in my experience... I have 1200 rounds through mine (a 4" model for CC). No problems with good ammo. The rifling inside the barrel goes all the way to the muzzle, with the porting on the end splitting the difference between power and recoil mitigation... An excellent choice.
@@dragonvipers5612 I use a Blackhawk brand IWB holster... It's just a cheap, thin nylon holster - but the only one I could find for a 4" medium frame revolver.
@@carlosmorris4510How is that working out. I want to get back in the game and am mulling over pocket revolver v.s. duty revolver. Probably will eventually get both. I am thinking of a pancake but IWB is a little easier to cover.
@@mkshffr4936 It's working out very well - for IWB concealed carry; the Taurus 627 Tracker is a little slimmer (and lighter) than a GP100, for example. It's one of the guns in my rotation. But yeah, it's good as a multipurpose, all-around revolver, imo; good as a CCW and for home defense... And it's 7-shot cylinder capacity is nice. The duty-sized 4" barrel length is good too; a better sight radius than a shorter barreled revolver - which helps with accuracy. I put a more recoil-absorbing aftermarket Hogue grip on mine, which makes shooting it even better... It's a lot of gun for the money! 👍
NICE!! I'm not normally a revolver guy, I have a few just because I think it's good to have some just in case. I've never had a semi auto caliber round revolver but I've been meaning to try one. I'll have to check out this one. Thanks for watching!!
I had a 4 and 6 inch and a 6 inch juge and traded them all for a 454 casull and 357 mag in the raging hunter in 5 one half inch barrel there was nothing rong with the two buttons I wanted something I could mount a optic sight to😊
I've put about 400 rounds through it, about half and half .357/.38, I honestly don't get it out to the range much unless friends or family want to shoot it, but so far no issues, it works every time. Just glad I got rid of most of that Armscor ammo, nearly every round took to or more strikes, didn't matter the firearm.
Not Armscor, I've had nothing but bad luck with it. For just practice I like Remington and Federal, for defense I use Hornady. All have been tough to find where I'm at.
My first experience with Armscor was .22s- worst .22 ammo I've ever tried, and I have tried as many different .22 types as I could. Armscor rimfire was by far the worst. I'm glad I saw this, I'd thought centerfire Armscor would be better, but it doesn't appear so.
It's not a safety in the traditonal sense like you'll find on semi autos, it's basically a child lock. You can thank Hillary Clinton for it. Taurus and S&W are the only two makes of revolvers that I know of that have them.
Using a safety on a double action revolver is like wearing a belt and suspenders at the same time while wearing Velcro sneakers w shoelaces. Actually, it's intended more as a child lock than s safety

The 627 Tracker or the 66, which is a 686 clone, are both sound options if you want a big 6-inch .357 at a budget!
Esse Revolver Taurus Modelo 627 Tracker, calibre 3,57 Magnum - foram os primeiros à sair em 6 polegadas e 7 disparos, muito bom realmente Top!❤❤❤
A big revolver is a beautiful thing.

What holster do you use for Concealed Carry I can’t find one

Hmm Nice Revolver :)

I picked up the 692 model with 9mm cylinder too !

@citizenpewcommentary from what I've seen they're hard to find , I happened to go in a LGS they had one in display counter and I put it on layaway.
I'll probably have my FFL put a couple models on his watch list for me. Eventually I'll get one, lol.
As retired police, I trust more the 357 revolver 6 inch more than semi automatic.
Awesome
How does it handle 357 reloads? Is it as sturdy as a Rugar GP 100?
I had a 4 and 6 inch and a 6 inch juge and traded them all for a 454 casull and 357 mag in the raging hunter in 5 one half inch barrel there was nothing rong with the two buttons I wanted something I could mount a optic sight to😊
Do you mean semi buck horn rear adjustable sights ?
It's a Patridge rear sight. Not sure why they went with such a modern rear sight but it isn't bad.
How many rounds on the gun now? Any Issues ?
I've put about 400 rounds through it, about half and half .357/.38, I honestly don't get it out to the range much unless friends or family want to shoot it, but so far no issues, it works every time.

What kind of 357 ammo do you recommend
Not Armscor, I've had nothing but bad luck with it. For just practice I like Remington and Federal, for defense I use Hornady. All have been tough to find where I'm at.
@@citizenpew thank you
I just got some fiocchi 158gr fmj and underwood 38spl 125gr +p fmj , online + free ship.also got Hornady 9mm 124gr fmj as I bought a Taurus 692.
Hornady 357 ammo is better.
Pretty sure almost any brand of 357 is better than Armscor, unfortunately I can't even give them away, lol.
The old fashion Remington SJHP is pretty well respected for affordable ammo.
Armscor ammo sucks.
Other than their .22lr I haven't had good luck with it at all.
Don't like the safety on this gun. Need a tool to lock or unlock.
I have a couple Taurus firearms with this locking feature. IMHO, If you're the only one who has the tool, and knows how the lock works....
What do you need with a safety on a revolver anyway?
My first experience with Armscor was .22s- worst .22 ammo I've ever tried, and I have tried as many different .22 types as I could. Armscor rimfire was by far the worst. I'm glad I saw this, I'd thought centerfire Armscor would be better, but it doesn't appear so.
