Six shooter
Anyone have any first hand experience (Cptn Kirk) with revolvers and moon clips that hold 8 rounds. Is the thickness of the clip what provides all the grip or is there more to it than that? Im looking for 38 super info if possible. Can anyone think of a good reason to go with anything other than a C-More sight on top of a revolver???

Moonclips are very brass specific. For .38 super the best clips are Smith and Wesson or Hearthco... both are brass specific.....Remington make the most consistent rim size .38 super brass.......Trust me, I did the investigation....including talking to the techs at Starline.
As far as dots, I prefer C More, because they don't break......Tell him the new mounts are $50.....I am having them made cheaper now.

I see shooterconnection has the Allchin Scope Mount for S&W. I guess this is what you are talking about. I've had a hell of a time seeing what others have done for open revolvers. There is lots of info out there on open auto's but nothing for revolvers. I guess your in the minority but I'm gonna be there with you.
As fas as moons, the gun came with a few S&W moons. I didn't pay any attention to the type of brass but it seemed to hold the bullets really tight. Brownells has 084-000-089 627M/.38 Super Moon Clips, 8 Rd., 5-Pak for 21.79. the one from TK are 69.99 for a ten pack. Wonder if its worth the 3 bucks extra per moon on the hearthco's???

I ordered the Allchin and C-more from shooters connection yesterday, they will be here today. I looked the brass I have in the moons. It was win brass and I can't imagine another clip holding it much tighter. I also have some RP nickle brass that seems a little loose but still droped in the gun effortlessly. Those rounds are loaded with a 125 fmj and the brass win loads are 121 zero HP's and I can see where the fmj's are going to make a big difference. All this ammo is loaded major for USPSA. I wonder how difficult it will be to eject all these hot loads once I have a moon full of empties?
I guess the next question is what's a good ICORE 38 super load?
