Well I finally bit the bullet and got my first wheel gun. I have heard good and bad things about the Taurus line of revolvers, so I went with it. It is a Taurus 605 SS I got new at the gunshow down here for 360. Sounded like a good deal to me!!!

Nice weapon! :smile:

Nice new gun. Can't ever go wrong with a good revolver. I've had bad experiences with the Taurus Semis, but haven't had any with the revolvers.

Aaahhh let the wheels keep turning.

Nice gun.

I have one identical to that. Cost was a bit less than that, a year more or less ago.

It has been no problem, whatsoever. I am careful not to dry fire without snap caps (long story. Just don't.).

HKS speedloaders didn't clear the factory grip. I ended up with an Uncle Mike's boot grip and a longer Uncle Mike's. Neither is still made. The one looks to be about the same as the Hogue Monogrip. Pachmayr gripper likewise had trouble w/ speedloaders.

I haven't had more than a couple cylinder's worth of .357 through it. A bit too much, even with the bigger grip.

Congrats on the new pistola..... :congrats:

Ah, a wheelie(wub). everybody needs at least one.
Skip the speedloader and try speed strips instead, much faster for me, smaller profile and easier to stash in a pocket.:smile:

Right back at you!!!

 

[Bulldog39]

Nice looking gun.
I agree with Rugergirl on the speed strips over the speed loaders, it takes more practice to get fast with them (at least for me).

Everyone should have at least one snubbie, and now you have yours...and it's a nice one.:hand10:

 

[2ndsupporter]

Nice pistol!!!

 

[MNBurl]

Great weapon. A cheaper good version of the S&W Model 60.

My father-in-law carries one.

I have a 605. They are good carry Snubs. Mine is accurate. I put the longer thinner Taurus Combat Grip on mine and have shot lots of 357 Ammo. I liked it so much I bought the 650 to carry as backup.
