I recently bought a 929 S&W and after one fun range session, sent it to TK Custom for the “Ultimate Trigger” upgrade… got it back today. Absolutely night and day difference. New trigger, hammer, rebound slide & springs, new hand, and of course, the “Hillary hole” is now gone. Beautiful cylinder chamfer, smooth fast trigger. I’ve had several custom projects with some taking YEARS to finish (from gunsmiths with long backlogs) so a 30 day wait for this was nothing. Eli is a talented gunsmith. Let me say… this work was worth every penny. You will never gain so much performance in a firearm as a good action job on an excellent quality revolver. Now I’ve got to decide if my 627 goes next or maybe send my GP-100 to be converted to shoot 38 Super. So many toys and so little time. Thanks for the excellent video.
Thanks for the great review. TK Custom is a renowned source for excellence in revolvers. (God's chosen recreational shooting system!) I've known Tom for over 25 years and own several revolvers which have been graced by his expertise. What he and Eli can't do for a revolver probably isn't worth having done! None of mine have had his full treatment; even so, they are greatly improved over factory. None of mine are 'competition, but are built for 'duty' use. (I'm unwilling to give up single action and need to be able to crush whatever primer rotates under the firing pin.) Their accoutrements are the finest. Congratulations on your fine acquisition and most enjoyable review. Pax
I don't know how such an awesome comment slipped by me. I definitely like this one. Glad I sent it to TK. I just ordered and installed their J Frame spring kit in my model 60 and put a new set of stocks on it. Can't wait to try it out! Thanks for watching!
Very nice quality updates to make everything from trigger pull, to cylinder release, to reloading smoother and more finely tuned. Fine outcome Mr. Pat! Yep, I need to get some of those TK Custom tools for my Performance Center 686. Thanks for demonstrating the tools again. (Primers are like Jackalopes and Snipes out west here - not seen recently!).
Just finished my paperwork on a 627, saw your original video on it and decided to browse the channel. Great stuff, but I saw this. Now I know what's next on the docket :)
That S&W may be the sweetest one I've ever seen especially with that trigger! Your whole setup for it is amazing too, it may be too efficient with the ammo and primer shortage 🤣 gotta take our time and enjoy it more now these days! Love that you have your grail gun 😁 Great video Pat, and the patch looks awesome
Gotta love some upgrades. I like swapping my trigger return springs out from stock to 12 pounders. That alone improves trigger pulls significantly without dropping hammer force at all. Runs me about six bucks and really improves any S&W stock triggers. Obviously you’ve had lots of quality professional work done and I’m not knocking that one bit. I’m just suggesting maybe swap out your return spring on your 327 just to see the difference if you haven’t tried that before. I’ll reimburse you the six bucks if you don’t like it.
@@PatRMG I only mentioned it because of how easy and effective it was to do, not at all because I think I know more than anyone else, likely quite contrary. Love your channel.
Latest update I have purchased a 627 and will be sending it off to TK Eli did a great job on my 986. I look forward to TK Custom work their magic on the 627.
i wish TK would have more customization options for their trigger jobs. i would like to get the same trigger job you have, but i would like a hammer with the option to do SA as well. i only see on their site the option to do the DA only hammer on that trigger job
That's pretty good, good to know they are high quality. I got a s&w 25 in 45lc and I heard TKC can do a 45 acp conversion with moon clips and chamfer the cylinder while I can still use 45 COLT no clips needed. I'll definitely inquire soon about it.
Need more chamfer. Niece piece. I have the shorter barreled version. I love my semi-autos but carry a revolver and the eight-shot option is, as much as I hate the overused term, a game-changer.
Nice gun i love moon clip smith and wesson. I must say i can't bring myself to owning one with the Clinton lock. I know Thayer good just can't do it luckily ive got some cool older ones without the lock.
Interesting My model 13 prefers Winchester ammo, being slightly less reliable with federal, and really bad with speer Sure tempted to send it off to those fellows for some work though Hell, maybe they could figure out the reason I sometimes don't get ignition from a bone stock 13-2
Fully seated Federal primers are what they recommend with this setup. Usually when I do get a hard primer it's a CCI. So, we're on the same page with the Speer.
@@PatRMG I shoot Factory loads almost exclusively, so I'm assuming these are all federal primers, properly seated by federal Almost always show a light primer strike when this happens, so it's very possible there's a problem with the revolver itself
Definitely don’t like the cylinder release. Love the 8 round cylinder but for carry I suspect the size of the moon clip would be cumbersome. Speed strips for me
Waste of money; should have bought a non PC and had the work done. Instead you paid extra for the PC work and then did work on top of it. Live and learn
Beautiful. I'm getting ready to send my S&W model 69 44 to TK. Already have many mods into it including porting done by Magnaport. Just added the extended cylinder release from TK and was looking into machining the cylinder for moon clips. Thanks for the input. That's one fine revolver.
Great Video, I prefer this over any automatic. I would like to carry this exact one with it’s improvements, and lowered trigger pull force now that I found some federal primers. This will go well with my S&W 17-8 ten shot revolver and PerformanceCenter 41
I love all guns but I really super love revolvers..lol The 627 is really a nice looking 357. I would love to purchase one when all this crazy shit is over in the market place.
One 627 PC 5" came for sale in Oct. 2021 but I wasn't fast enough on the purchase button. I still check daily at Riflegear. Man I would love to get this revolver or the two tone 627 V comp. Sweet!
Would you happen to know where I can get the factory replacement grip for the 327? I would also like to get one for my TRR8. Can't find on Smith website of anywhere.
What about getting in touch with Geeky Sparkles and Kneon from Clownfish TV? I know they routinely do comic projects maybe they'd be interested in doing distribution for Seedy Creek.
Dang! That trigger is something else, not from this world. Well done Pat.
Super slick. I can't wait to reduce the trigger pull even more when I start using Federal primers.
@@PatRMG That would convince me to leave any of my semi pistols in the safe. Have a fantastic day man.
Have an awesome day yourself!

That chamfer/beveling on that part of the cylinder is genius!
That chamfer is something else. Made a huge difference.
Beautiful! Man, what a revolver. Good job.
Thanks Chuke! I'm digging it.
"Chuke is that you " just had to man . Seen ur sks video awsome.

@@PatRMG You didn't miss. I was a year late to the dance!
That is one AWESOME REVOLVER
Much agreed! Do understand that you had me cracking up yesterday.
Every bit as nice as you said. And that gas ⛽ pedal cylinder release is awesome buddy. RMG speaking the truth
That cylinder release and bobbed hammer changed up the look completely.

I managed to find 1k primers Saturday. I can turn this trigger down now. 😁

Enjoy that 627!
Beautiful gun and that trigger!!!! My god that’s something else
It's smooth as butter.
Hello! Man, both of those are awesome looking guns!!! I bet that action job feels incredible in hand. Thanks for sharing these!
Dude, this 627 is unreal. I'm floored.
Wow that makes me want a revolver! I think I've just been converted! Lol great videos
Grab one and try it. You might like it!
Butter 🧈 🧈 absolutely beautiful gun man , enjoy that forever
Thanks a ton, Cody!

Thanks Adam! Take care!
@@PatRMG happy to hear you were able to find some primers! Take care as well Pat, I love you too 😘
Have a super week!
Absolutely gorgeous sir!!! We are definitely blessed to be able to have such nice firearms at our disposal! BTW, I love you too 😍
Yeah. Metallurgy and engineering have definitely left us with some sweet firearms!
Pat, Nice video. Great looking smooth action gun. Take care.
Thanks a ton, Bobcat!
Wow you can pull that da trigger with the tip of your finger so smoothly. This shows tk customs quality well
you got me back into lever guns now i might just have to get some more revolvers !
Just like you got me back into deer hunting.....
Very impressive presentation 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
OMG,..want one! BAD! Oh,..The .44 Henry X is still working flawlessly. Had to get a recoil pad. My 74 year old shoulder said so!! It's all good now!
Glad to hear your X Model is serving you well!
If you go to the grave with that revolver I'm digging you up😀
I just cracked up. "Be careful, I'm armed down there!"🤣🤣
@@PatRMG I'm laughing so hard I got tears
Just sent my 686 off to TKC. After seeing this Im much more excited to get it back. You should did an update video! I’d love to see you shoot it more.
Great video brother. I just subscribed to your channel.
Welcome to the channel!
Sending a Performance Center to a custom gunsmith to make it work smoothly is a sad statement on the Performance Center.
A Performance center is still good, but this is better. 😁
I would agree
I have a 327 snubbed nose 357 PC, I just might send it to get done up! Your 627 looks great.

I'll keep that in mind. I've got a couple other Smiths that need a lighter trigger.

Thanks a ton!
Cool video
Thanks for watching!
Talk about a nice pairing with a lever action!
Oh goodness. You just made my heart palpitate.
awesome
Beautiful!
Thanks a ton!
Looking at the SW627 since Jerry says if he can only have one gun it would be this or a 12 gauge. Video was from Vortex
I really like my 627.

Sounds like that would be a fun wheelgun!
Turnaround time is only 3-5 days in the shop!
Thenks
Had that 327 received its TK Customs treatment yet?
Not yet, but it sure needs it!
That is slick 💯
Big like 👍
Super thanks!
What was the point of having bobbed, when you have that cylinder release lever put on there to snag on things .
That is nice !!
It's super slick.
Need more chamfer. Niece piece. I have the shorter barreled version. I love my semi-autos but carry a revolver and the eight-shot option is, as much as I hate the overused term, a game-changer.
What did it cost for the upgrades you had TK Custom do to your 627?
Currently 695
I have 327 as my EDC. Pretty convincing. How much does this cost?
What was the price for the whole service? Thanks
Now why didn’t I thank of them clips now??????????? I’ll keep my eye open for some primers for you genius. Be safe buddy and GOD BLESS y’all Amen 🙏
Take care Randle!
Where did you get the moon clip loader?
Did you get rid of the lock
Pat I don't know how you keep your channel going.
Don't you know there is a...
"Finite" amount of Ammo?
But the ammo that I do get is some dang finite ammo.
I’m not first but damn it I’m here!!!!!
Dude, I'm gonna text you about this Hipoint video. This thing needs some interesting dialog.
@@PatRMG Hahhaha let’s get it
I’ve got every kind of primer except small magnum pistol I’ll run across some GOD BLESS
Nice gun i love moon clip smith and wesson. I must say i can't bring myself to owning one with the Clinton lock. I know Thayer good just can't do it luckily ive got some cool older ones without the lock.
The lock is disabled as part of the TK Custom package.
@@PatRMG nothing wrong with the lock the guns are nice..😁
Hey Genius
Hello Randle!
THANK YOU 10 SHOT
One of my favorite wheel guns. Have 2 of um both lue horton's. Have shot the crap outta one. Left the other one new in the box...
All Australian shooters wish that had a 2a

That thing is WAY prettier!
Hahhahhahaaa!
I'm sorry to admit she is prettier than my prom date...
She puts out when she gets loaded too. 🤣🤣🤣
I'm sorry. I just thought of that!
Sir how to order?
Full details are in the video. I talked about the order form and everything.
Don’t use that for self defense you are setting yourself up for prosecution with a modified trigger

Waste of money; should have bought a non PC and had the work done.

Live and learn
The way I traded into the PC takes the cost out of the equation. Didn't pay sales tax on top of that.
Ruined
Nope
Have you shot 💥 Underwood ammo or buffalo 🦬 bore ❓
id love to find a cylinder catch like that for my taurus 856 revolver and i bet it would improve the speed
I haven't seen a release like that for the Taurus SFR. There may be one out there.
@@PatRMG ill do some peeking around im low budget and id love to have something that helps me reload faster
Ya but what about the Beard !! If they have a need for beard models .. you should step up !!
Have beard, will travel.
WHERE CAN I SEND MY 357 PERFORMANCE TO GET UPGRADED? AND WHAT'S THE COSTS?
Good stuff! 👍
Yeah buddy! 😘
Great mods 👍impressive so smooth of a trigger you can hear the difference on the video. All my Smiths required trigger work.
Thanks a ton! I really enjoy this one.
Man I'm still stuck on the intro lol
Hahhhahaa!
Joke is on you Pat, my prom date was a greased pig 🤣🐷... 😢
Hhahhahahaaaa! See your patch?
A Cadillac of a revolver! Nice idea with that ammo box too👍👏
I'm loving the whole setup. I need a devoted range bag to tote it all around in.
Yes that is sweet.

Still carrying the Taurus model 605 as your EDC?
Rotating between the 605 and Smith model 60.

Best thing that happened to my 627.
A year later how are you liking the 627 and are you running factory ammo?
If so any issues with lite strikes.
Any info would be greatly appreciated

Enhorabuena me gustó mucho su trabajo,

Altamont makes the grips. Enjoy that 627!
