why collectors who have a S&W model 631 never sell them.. The 631 is a short production run of stainless J-frame revolvers in .32 H&R Mag and a sweetheart of a "kit" gun... I`ve always carried a small frame Smith in one caliber or another on my hip when hunting.. Most often its been a four inch in 22 mag or a two inch in 22lr...An early three inch model 60-4 in 38 Special has also made a few journeys. I`am not saying this gun is the perfect outdoor packin pistol but it sure is a top contender in the category... The 32 H&R and 327 Federal have put the 32 calber in a much higher position then its earlier version`s...A useful cartridge for the great outdoors...

Very nice gun James. l am told by a shooting buddy that quite a

few Smith owners bore the cylinders out so they can shoot 327Federal.

Certainly not a wise move since 327Fed pressure is almost DOUBLE 32h&r

When Teddy Roosevelt was head of the NYPD he outfitted the whole

force with 32 Colt New Police revolvers.. Lots MORE dead bad guys

back then too. Most critical aspect of shooting ANYTHING is bullet placement..

Without proper placement NOTHING else matters!! Nice gun..


ps l found two 631s on the net.. Both were 2'' fixed sight models @$1000-$1500

Neither as desirable as your 32 KIT GUN
