that is so cool! personally, I would probably buy my wife something else to shoot and keep that just the way it is now.. I just can't get over the condition that revolver is in and the story that goes with it, just incredible!!

I will get her something else in the long run, but for now this will work in emergencies. I am not buying it for her to take out on the range on a consistent basis. Just something to have around the house when she desperately needs it. With a 4" barrel it is definitely NOT a C&C gun. Not in a purse anyway. It would work for open carry on my hip, to heavy for anything else.

Just shot it. As smooth as can be. When using it as a single action, the trigger pull is incredibly short and light. It actually surprised me, I jumped a bit when it went off because I thought I had another half inch of pull left. Pretty sweet little gun

Quick question for those with experience shooting these. How do I line up the sight? Is it the top of the sight? middle? Which part is supposed to be "dead on".
