question on S&W .45 625-4

[reddogglife]

Just bought a S&W 625-4 the wierd part is that on the right side of the revolver it has the Springfield Armory stamp. Is this a real S&W+Springfield armory or just a custom job. Any information would be great.

Sure it's not something else? I don't claim to know every thing about SW but they have not done a joint venture with Sprng Armory to my knowlege

"thunder ranch"-maybe?
