Smith & Wesson Governor Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

not a S&W

The gun looks as if someone took a pliers to the extractor rod .The tooling is strip out? Maybe to tighten up the cylinder. Lot of play it rubs on the frame. I also have had misfires with 410 shotshells.

410 LITE STRIKE MISFIRE

The Roman Legions would have dubbed this weapon Dubious Maximus! S&W has to use a 6 round moon clip or 2 round clip to operate with 45 ACP. That raises the 45 ACP Breech Bolt Face and primer to a height of 0.086" above the cylinder charge hole en

Misfiring

First of all let me say that this gun is great for personal protection in the house. I have always like shotguns for protection in the home, now it comes in a small package for everywhere. I have experienced some issues with the gun misfiring. At first I

The Governor

Governor

Purchased the Governor at Cabela's in Louisville last year. Initially felt awkward but shoots exceptionally well. Less recoil than a government model 1911 and a lot more accurate. Would not recommend for concealed carry. A Kimber .380 Micro a much better

The most useful handgun I have owned. Perfect.

Talk about doing it all. I have owned a lot of handguns in my life and this is the most versatile piece I have every had the pleasure of using. Even though a snub nose it is extremely accurate with 45 Colt as well as 45 ACP. Two inch groups at self defens

Failure to rotate the cylinder

I have had a Governor that I purchased at Cabelas in Lacy WA, good sound staff helping us with the purchase and very knowledgeable.

Excellent service and product

I purchased a "Governor" revolver at the Lone Tree Cabelas, I worked with Tom and Toby, they are knowledgeable and professional. It was a great experience!!! I will go back!!!

3 Types of Fire Power

Love this weapon! The .410 shot shells makes a great snake gun on my Texas ranch. The .45 Colt and the .45 ACP (with moon clips) gives the additional self defense capability that could stop any bad guy. Finding a sturdy and reliable leather holster was a

Crisp Trigger

I have had the Governor for over a year now. It's a fun gun to shoot. I have tried around 10 different .410 rounds, I have found I like the 000 buck the best. It has a tight pattern at 7 yards. Which most home defense will be with in. Also long colts are

At the range there were 4 others, all they could say was"what are you shooting"!!!! for close in need you have enought stopping power for any situation. I love the fact that I can alternate ammunition in the cylinder. I did NOT like the metal mo

Point and Shoot

A great weapon for personal and home defense. Because of my physical limitations (disabled veteran), I cross carry, concealed. I use a .410 gauge shell packed with three plated defense discs followed by 12 plated BBs. I also use 45 Long Colt Hollow Points

Great handgun

I just purchased a S&W Governor. Its an excellent gun and Cabelas made the sale easy and enjoyable.

Great all around handgun

I PURCHASED THIS REVOLVER AFTER i HAD ALREADY OWNED A TAURUS JUDGE. THIS GUN IS A BETTER QUALITY, AND ALSO ALLOWS YOU TO SHOOT ALL 3 CALIBERS (45ACP, 45LC AND 410), BOT JUST TWO. A LITTLE MORE MONEY, BUT WORTH IT!

Night sight great, acp a welcome addition to the 45/410 platform of competitors, with no real weight difference for the 6 round vs 5 round. Grip not as good at obsorbing recoil as the judge though.Short barrel showed consistent loss of 200fps from adverti
