The Story

S&W M627-5

The Smith & Wesson 627 is one of the most desirable revolvers in production — a large-frame N-frame chambered in the legendary .357 Magnum, but holding eight rounds instead of the traditional six (thanks to the larger cylinder).

It's a competition shooter's dream: powerful, accurate, and built on the same foundation as the iconic Model 29 (Dirty Harry's gun).

.357 Magnum is one of the most exhilarating cartridges in handgun shooting — a sharp, authoritative crack with a real fireball at the muzzle. Combined with the precision of an N-frame S&W and that satisfying click-click-click of the cylinder, it's pure handgun pleasure.

The .357 Magnum cartridge was developed in 1934 specifically to defeat the body armor and automobile bodies that gangsters of the Prohibition era were using. It was the first "magnum" handgun cartridge and remains one of the most effective ever designed.

Real feedback from guests who fired this weapon at our Riga range.

★★★★★

“Eight rounds of .357 Magnum from a revolver is an experience unlike anything else at the range. The thunder, the fire, the recoil — visceral in the best possible way. The M627's action is buttery smooth.”

Brad N. · Nashville
★★★★★

“The N-frame S&W is a precision instrument in the truest sense. The trigger in single action is the finest I've felt on a revolver, and the 8-round cylinder is such clever engineering.”

Klaus S. · Frankfurt
★★★★★

“I had never fired a Magnum revolver before. The instructor walked me through double-action and single-action modes and the power delivery is genuinely impressive. Loud, dramatic, and deeply satisfying.”
