Competition Revolvers

I want to get my 625 setup right this year. Post your pics so I can learn from you please.

I have no pics of the 625 I had, but I can tell you every little detail about setting one up for full reliability. The guy I eventually sold it to went to the ICORE Championship in CA with it and won two guns off the prize table. When I first got it, it wouldn't make 60 rounds without choking. After I was done, 300 round practice sessions without a hiccup.

Send your 625 to mike carmoney he will make it a shooter....

Chambers · Jan 27, 2011

What's a good USPSA revo? And what do they need aside from sights + trigger? I want something that will shoot major.

jtischauser · Jan 27, 2011

I think the 625 is the most popular revo for ICORE and USPSA isn't it? It would be cool to have a .40 version to match the SS and limited guns.

Who is Carmoney? Where is he located? And how do I reach him?

And it simplifies my reloading quite a bit. Do they make a .40?

I just want one so I can beat Javier.

Good luck with that. I shot with him at the last ICORE match and he's an awesome revo shooter.

If you want to make major get a 625. There are others but that's probably the simplest.

Carmonize. In the vendor section on Enos.

Javier is getting good... Chambers I shoot a 610 which is 40/10mm.

What scott said.... His triggers are silk

Hell yeah. Let's squad. :blink: Are you shooting rifle or 3-gun with us this weekend?

ChrisC · Jan 28, 2011

Kids birthday is this weekend so im out....

jtischauser · Jan 28, 2011

Is the 610 the 40 version of the 625?

ChrisC · Jan 28, 2011

Yes. It is an N frame. They make an L frame but it's hard to come by. Of course a 610 isn't that easy. I'd rather have a 5 inch 625. But that'd hindsight.

Rolando · Jan 28, 2011

Good luck finding a 610. That's a rare bird.

Where does a guy find out what all the frame designations mean? I don't even know what my 625 is considered??? :blink:

Your 625 is an N frame it is the largest of the popular frames. The X frame is a little larger than the N and houses the likes of the 500S&W. Even a guy with medium sized hands like me can shoot the X frame.

I just got my 625 back from Carmoney a couple of weeks ago. He did his customary work where he removed the spur, chamfered the cylinder and smoothed up the action. I finally got to shoot it last Sunday. It really does make a big difference. I could shoot fairly straight with it before the makeover, but I really believe this will help me shoot better. The biggest differences will be reloading speed and the way that the hammer strike affects my hold. With the spur still on I noticed during dry fire that the strike of the hammer would disturb my sight alignment if I didn't have a very firm grip. The chamfer is incredible. It looks like I have six funnels on my cylinder. The best part is that I got the gun back in less than two weeks!
