I have a craving for a 5" model 625 in 45acp, after having the pleasure of shooting one a few weeks ago.....Well, that, and a bunch of moon clips :)

Phil, I had one once.

I found the half/full moon clips a real pain, great for speed loading but a chew on to get the cases in and out.

The answer was simple, I bought a couple of hundred .45 Auto Rim cases.

That revolver kept my Gold Cup companion for quiete a while :D

The 625 I fired belonged to my uncle, and he used a somewhat crude but effective instrument to deal with the clips. It was a piece of PVC pipe cut to fit around the cases, with an extractor lip at the base, which made removing the cases a breeze.

Not that my typing it out makes any sense...I'm sure there is some kind of tutorial on the "information superhighway". :razz:

Yes there were home made and commercial variations of these case remover tools when I was at it, but it was getting all to complcated for me in the sense of kit on the bench.

With the Auto Rim cases it all became simple again. :cool:
