Smith and Wesson M and P Performance Center R8 .357 Magnum 5 in 8 Round Scandium N Frame Matte

The Smith & Wesson Performance Center M&P R8 delivers revolver reliability with .357 Magnum power in a refined, shooter-ready package that suits hunting, target work, and duty use, blending hand-tuned performance with modern features from the Performance Center line; the Scandium alloy N-frame keeps the 5" matte black barrel and stainless 8-round cylinder light at about 36 oz empty for manageable carry and recoil while still handling .357 Magnum and .38 Special +P, and the DA/SA action with exposed hammer and Performance Center tuned trigger with stop gives crisp double- or single-action shots for follow-up accuracy. An integrated Picatinny accessory rail on the aluminum frame accepts lights or optics, the interchangeable front and adjustable V-notch rear sight set supports precise sighting out to distance, and included moon clips speed reloads for competition or defensive scenarios. The synthetic finger-grooved grip provides control through recoil, the black finish resists glare in the field, and the Performance Center's hand-fitting and tuning make this M&P R8 a standout for shooters who want a high-performance revolver; an FFL transfer is required for purchase.
