Smith & Wesson is releasing new J, L and N-Frame revolvers exclusively through Lipsey’s. This new line of wheelguns starts off with the Model 632-UC Ti, a lightweight, performance-focused defensive revolver. This J-Frame revolver is chambered in .32 H&R Mag., has a six-round capacity and features a lightweight titanium cylinder and aluminum alloy frame to reduce weight for maximum comfort when carrying. It is designed with a 1.88-inch barrel that includes a bright dot tritium front sight and a black u-notch rear sight which are regulated for use with commonly available ammunition.

The Model 632-UC Ti is built with an upgraded endurance package to improve both performance and durability, and its chamfered charge holes allow for easy loading. Two versions are available, in either a black or silver finish and come with a textured synthetic grip to allow for enhanced control and comfort when shooting.

The two remaining releases include the Model 686-Plus and Model 629 Mountain Guns. The L-Frame 686-Plus is built from stainless-steel and is a seven-shot revolver chambered in .357 Mag./.38 Special +P. It includes a 4.13-inch barrel with a patridge-style brass bead front sight and adjustable rear sight for better sight acquisition. The second model is the Model 629, a six-shot N-Frame revolver chambered in .44 Mag./.44 Spl. Like the Model 686-Plus, it shares the same all-stainless-steel construction, 4.13-inch barrel, brass bead front and adjustable rear sights, and a high-grade walnut Bear Hug grip from Tyler Gun Works.

More information on these new guns as well as other firearms and gear made by Smith & Wesson is available at smith-wesson.com.
