S&W has made the greatest pistol ever...

[5.56X45mm]

Those bastards over at S&W have done it again. They have released another toy that has got my attention.

S&W Performance Center's 8-shot .357 "Tactical" revolver

That is one sweet little revolver. I'd love to have one. And I've never seen one with a tactical light rail on it. I'd also take off that red-dot sight and put a Surefire X200A light on the light rail...

It's a Eight Shot .357 Mag Revolver with all the bells and whistles of a modern tactical semi-auto. I love wheel guns and I think that the .357 Magnum Caliber is one bad ass round.

I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT!
I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT!
I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT!
I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT!

Looks very nice!

Any idea how the light/sight affects the stability of the gun?


Edit: isn't this the same gun??

[5.56X45mm]

Not much I figure. I've shoot a many semi-autos with sights and lights on it.

 

[Rabs]

meh, il stick to my puny 38

 

[Missileer]

Now that's a gun. Beats the heck out of my 5 shot S&W .38 spl with two inch barrel. I've always been partial to the .357 cartridge.

 

[zander_0633]

Well, I have shoot a .38 from S&W before! I believe they make good Revolvers!

 

[Rabs]

They make very nice revolvers.

Ah, Thats the S&W 8 "Times" or 8X .357 tactical. Its been in development for a while. From what i heard, its a useful weapon at long range if you put a 2x scope on it. Its a little funny to use at close range due to its slighter long trigger pull.

 

[zander_0633]

well, but you can only imagine the damage it will do on a person in close range! Imagine shooting straight in the head! Will the head explode?? BOOM!

 

[armlesscadet]

id like to have one of those with me next time i leave the house

 

[major liability]

Certainly the revolver best fit for combat. I want one.

 

[Obvious]

I want one too

 

[zander_0633]

O! Boy! Y not post more pics?

 

[Obvious]

Still in development, but I know a game that features the gun.

FRAG-OPS

 

[zander_0633]

So the game's Frag Ops? ! Nice!

THANKS!!!!!

Smith & Wesson has finally updated their web page. They take forever, just like Kimber.

Hey, Yesterday , I went to the Asian Aerospace and guess wad, there is a Smnith & Wesson's booth! The sad thing is, they did not display the 327 TRR8! When I asked them, they looked surprised that I asked such a question and said it was not on display.
