They look terrible. Go with a more reputable brand.

I really like the looks of this gun. The design of the firing out of the lower cylinder puts the inertia lower in your hand thus making the gun have less perceived and easier to handle recoil with less muzzle climb even with the same round.

I agree and had the same thoughts. Would I get one and show it off, probably not. Would I get one at all, probably not. But I do like it and give the company credit for thinking outside of the box. Its not like the revolver has changed much in 200 years.

$2500? IIRC, they were $500 when they came to the US in 2000 or so.

I saw a couple of them used for $1500 but didnt look any further into them. May have even been an auction that I was looking at. I was hoping for sub $1000 new and I might entertain the idea for a few days.

I jimp'd when I read about it in 1999 when they came out. They were only like $400 NIB and it would have been my 4th gun. There are only 2000 or so that weren't sent back. Those 2000 pistols gotta be worth big bucks today.

If I were to buy a revolver, it would be the Chiappa. I have no plans to buy a revolver.

This. Wife has a .38 special and one is more than enough for me. Just no interest.

I want a single action for the collection, but that's it.
