Construction & Workmanship – Highest German Precision
“Made in Germany” – Developed by a Master Gunsmith
Thomas Spohr, a master gunsmith from the Westerwald region and a driving force within Club 30, has created a revolver with the L562 that offers custom-grade quality at an achievable price point . Manufacturing takes place on state-of-the-art CNC machines from SOLID material – meaning no cast or MIM parts, only massive, high-strength stainless steel components.
The wire-eroded trigger system is a unique selling point in this price class. All lock components are manufactured from high-grade tempered steel and precisely cut using wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) . This manufacturing process improves both trigger characteristics and wear resistance – ensuring consistent function and extremely long service life.
For collectors: Anyone looking to k98 kaufen or already owning a k98 mauser will immediately appreciate the craftsmanship quality of the L562. However, unlike historical manufacturing methods, state-of-the-art CNC technology takes center stage here.
The Polygonal Match Barrel – The Soul of the Revolver
The heart of the L562 is the cold-hammer-forged polygonal match barrel with a 12-flat profile, manufactured at Merkel in Suhl according to Spohr’s own specifications . Compared to conventional land-and-groove barrels, the polygonal profile offers decisive advantages:
-
Better gas sealing → higher muzzle velocity
-
More uniform bullet guidance → better precision
-
Easier cleaning
-
Higher barrel service life
The strength increase achieved through this manufacturing process is characterized by precision, longevity, and ease of cleaning . The 1-300 mm twist rate is universally compatible with bullets from 125 to 180 grains.
For hunters: The precision of this barrel is comparable to a rem 700 in the rifle category. Those on a stalk or driven hunt will appreciate the combination of handiness and precision.
Trigger System – Wire-Eroded Perfection
The L562 features a completely wire-eroded trigger system with Solid Hammer LX-V1 and Solid Trigger LX-V2 components .
Measured values from testing:
-
Single Action (SA): 1,368-1,452 g (average 1,409 g)
-
Double Action (DA): 4,123-4,298 g (average 4,201 g)
-
Lock Time SA: 8 ms
The SA trigger breaks cleanly without noticeable creep – ideal for precision work on the 50-meter range . The DA trigger runs smoothly without any hard points . These values prove that the L562 offers trigger qualities that can compete with revolvers from significantly higher price ranges.
An adjustable trigger stop comes as standard equipment . This allows you to minimize over-travel after the break – a detail that serious sport shooters will appreciate.
For competition shooters who own a cz shadow 2 target: The L562 offers similarly precise controllability with its SA trigger – though in the entirely different character of the .357 Magnum revolver.
LPA Micrometer Sights & Target Front Blade
The sighting systems of the L562 are designed for maximum precision.
LPA TXT Micrometer rear sight: The fully adjustable rear sight with a 3.05 mm notch width allows fine, click-adjustable windage and elevation settings . This is perfect for zeroing different ammunition types.
Target front blade: The undercut target front blade with 3.50 mm width is screwed in place and easily interchangeable .
Sight radius: 205 mm – a long sight radius for maximum aiming precision.
Compatibility: The rear sight is cut in an S&W dovetail, allowing aftermarket sights to be mounted without issue.
Grips & Ergonomics
The L562 uses the S &W L-Frame grip dimensions (based on the S&W 686) . This opens up a vast selection of high-quality grips from various manufacturers – from NILL to Hogue to special target grips.
The factory-installed laminated wood grips are manufactured in-house in the Westerwald region . They offer excellent ergonomics and fill the hand perfectly.
For owners of a benelli m4 or m870 remington who value consistent grip geometry: The L562 offers countless customization options thanks to its compatibility with S&W L-Frame grips.
L-Frame Design & Dimensions
The L562 is based on the industry-standard L-Frame size (S&W 686) . This means:
-
Compact yet full-sized dimensions
-
Perfect balance between handiness and stability
-
Compatibility with most aftermarket grips and sights
Despite its compact size, the revolver achieves a substantial weight of over 1,425 grams . The weight contributes to recoil reduction – making the .357 Magnum a controllable sporting tool.
Frame details:
-
Material: Martensitic stainless steel (automatically corrosion-resistant)
-
Manufacturing: Milled from SOLID, no cast parts
-
Fit: Minimal tolerances for perfect timing
Cylinder & Workmanship – Precision in Detail
The L562’s cylinder is crafted with great attention to detail:
-
Fluted design (old style)
-
Numbered chambers on the cylinder face – facilitates identification of the most precise chamber and cleaning
-
Minimal lateral play – consistent at each cylinder stop
-
Longitudinal play: only approx. 0.05 mm
-
Cylinder gap: approx. 0.15-0.20 mm
-
Cylinder throat: 9.12 mm – sufficient for all common bullet types
-
Match cylinder opener – facilitates loading and unloading
The precise cylinder guidance and minimal tolerances not only provide a high-quality feel but also optimal gas sealing and consistent shooting behavior .
For hunters who also carry tierabwehrspray in the field: The combination of precise mechanics and reliable .357 Magnum ammunition makes the L562 an ideal companion in nature – when the spray is no longer sufficient.
SPOHR L562 in Testing – Precision Results
The team at All4Shooters extensively tested the L562 . The results speak for themselves:
Precision Test at 25 Meters
| Ammunition Type | Bullet Weight | Group Size (5 shots) |
|---|---|---|
| Hornady American Gunner .357 Mag | 125 grains | 20 mm (best group!) |
| Hornady American Gunner .38 Special | 125 grains XTP | 30 mm |
| PPC/1500 Handload | 125 grains H&N Wadcutter | 32 mm |
| Average of all tested loads | – | 39 mm |
Hornady American Gunner .357 Magnum ammunition produced the best group by a significant margin. With a spread of only 20 mm at 25 meters, the revolver achieves almost pleasant rifle-level precision . 10 out of 12 tested loads produced groups under 50 mm – with any of this ammunition, the shooter could hold the 10-ring on a BDS/DSB target .
Trigger Measurements (Trigger Scan System)
| Measurement | Minimum | Maximum | Average |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single Action (SA) | 1,368 g | 1,452 g | 1,409 g |
| Double Action (DA) | 4,123 g | 4,298 g | 4,201 g |
| Lock Time SA | – | – | 8 ms |
These values prove that the SPOHR L562 offers trigger behavior that can compete with the best sport revolvers in the world.
Independent Confirmation – Ballistic Mag Test
US magazine Ballistic Mag also extensively tested the L562 and reached a similarly positive verdict:
-
SA trigger: average 1,020 g (2 lbs 4 oz)
-
DA trigger: average 3,940 g (8 lbs 11 oz)
-
Multiple shooting tests confirmed the excellent precision
Tester conclusion: “I tested the Spohr L562 revolver under pressure – with drills, chronographs, and speedloader checks. It consistently delivered the same message: ‘I am an heirloom.'”
Shooting Behavior & Handling
Barrel & Balance: The 6-inch barrel with full underlug provides a front-heavy balance. This noticeably reduces muzzle rise and promotes steady hold and aiming behavior during strings .
Double-action firing: The DA trigger is smooth and rolling. The Ballistic Mag tester reports several cloverleaf groups at 7 yards achieved in pure double-action fire .
Precision at distance: The polygonal match barrel is regulated for excellent groups at up to 50 meters – ideal for hunting or precision shooting at extended ranges .
For users of tierabwehrspray in outdoor service (e.g., foresters, hunters): The L562 offers excellent control with its weight and precision – even under stress. The .357 Magnum provides sufficient energy for large game, while .38 Special enables cost-effective training.
Compared to the colt python, one of the most legendary revolvers of all time, the L562 offers more modern manufacturing methods (wire-eroded parts instead of casting) and a significantly better price-to-performance ratio.

Ammunition Recommendations
The SPOHR L562 is not picky, but it rewards good ammunition with exceptional accuracy .
For training / budget shooting:

.38 Special – cheaper, significantly less recoil
-
Less expensive .357 Magnum FMJ (e.g., Magtech, S&B, GECO)
For hunting / precision:
-
Hornady XTP / FTX – proven hunting ammunition
-
GECO .357 Magnum – good German quality
For competition (BDMP):
-
Match ammunition in .38 Special or .357 Mag – depending on the discipline
