Also, the grips that were advertised aren’t the ones that came with the gun. Which is good because those grip were not highly rated. The ones that came with this one were very nice. Comparable to aftermarket rubber grips.
Very pleased!
The 5 shot format and short barrel results in a fairly compact weapon for this caliber however it's only about 2 pounds so the recoil with 44 mag is very noticeable even with gloves and a relatively soft rubber grip.
The trigger is a little gritty and the cylinder release needs a box or two to smooth out though both are usable right out of the gate. I've only fired 15 rounds so far [10 of 44 spl and 5 of 44 mag].
The rear sight is adjustable in both directions but it seemed right on. The front sight is a pinned blade with red tape as an insert. The tape is easily removed to be replaced with red paint.
The pistol is advertised as a ported 4 inch barrel but the last inch it just a shroud with holes in it so the effective length is 3".
Considering that a top of the line similar 44 mag is about an additional $300, I believe this is a decent option for someone who's only going to fire it in dire emergencies as is my intention.
