It looks like the TRR8. Except it has an M&P on it, and the rail is stanag-ish looking rather than a standard weaver.



I guess it is the non-performance center version of the TRR, and it looks like it might be called the M&P8.



However, the internet says only impactguns and ableammo have it listed, and neither have it in stock.

I emailed S&W about it.. Waiting for a reply.. I have been wanting to get a 357 revolver.. This might be my choice..

Think its an MP R8. I saw one on gunbroker, had a light and optics.



Wonder how heavy it is?

If they made one of those for me, they didn't have to. One of yall can have it.

There was an article about it in one of the magazines, SWAT officers complained than then they used a 1911 with a ballistic shield, when fired the slide would often hit the shield, and cause a malfunction, with a increased capacity revolver that's not going to be a problem.



When they use the shield their arm goes around the shield so they can carry the weapon in front of the shield.

I think S&W is just milking the M&P name now.



It was one thing to give their new next gen polymer gun this historic moniker but now it's on AR's, handcuffs, and now this???

 

[ben2112]

Yeah.. I really want a wheel gun to add to my collection.. I might stick with my original plan of getting a nice 686..

It's probably the TRR8

There is a article in Guns & Ammo magazine (Oct. issue) about the Peformance Center version. MSRP priced at $1,260.00. Not really a bad price for a Performance Center pistol. Great looking gun. Wish I could afford it now but maybe someday.

I have a S & W 686PP 6" 357 magnum now but you can't have enough good revolvers.
