Picked this up a couple of months ago for backpacking and a back up carry. 21/2" barrel with 8 shots of .357 magnum and only weighs around 24 oz. I have taken it out to the range a couple of times and it shot tight groups at 15 yards. I am pretty impressed with it so far, I have it loaded with hornaday hollows. In the winter i open carry my USPF .45 and slide this hot little number right into my coat pocket.
*I have read about issues with the firing pin failing to strike the primer hard enough due to the drop safety S&W used to get it on the list for the People's Republic of California but fixed it and I am 99%positive this is one after the matter.
Next time I go to the range I will provide a more in depth report of it's accuracy.

Isn't that an N frame?
If so, that's a pretty beefy "backup". :D
I had one of the Night Guards that had poor ignition. Sent it back to S&W and they replaced the firing pin with the longer one it probably should have had to start with.

My older brother bought this brand new many years ago and never shot it. I asked him about it one day and if he wanted to sell it to me, so he said I could have it for free.
Yes it was. Still has the receipt in the box too...he paid about $70 or so I think. Just wish it had the magnum cylinder.

Here's a S&W 627-0 that I had worked on by Mark Harthshorne @ Pinnacle High Performance. The idea was to build a revolver for IDPA, shooting .357Mag/.38Spcl.
Can you tell what work was done?

The guy at S&W that thought of chambering .357 magnum in a 12 oz, 1 7/8" barrel J frame revolver, is both a moron, and a genius.
Yeah I can not shoot magnums w/o having my hand shake for hours after. Following qualification I had to investigate a car crash. I remember trying to figure out why I couldn't write. I stopped and looked at my hand it was shaking like crazy. Most of my shooting with it is done with .38's. The cylinder release cuts my thumb too!
Any of you guys have a Smolt? Shot one for the first time a few weeks ago. We had a retired FBI agent qualify with us. He carried it in the late 70's early 80's? Any error in the time frame is mine. I don't remember that part of the story. And for a guy in his early 70's he could shoot!
Horrible lighting as i just laid it on a pillow and snapped a quick pic.
