I have one that I like a lot, though the gun makes absolutely no sense as a primary home defense firearm. I just like the humpback styling. If I ever have justification to get a carry permit under Orange County procedures, this would be one of two or three I'd be likely to carry.

It is definitely a hand stinger to shoot Cor-Bon rounds in the original configuration of this revolver. I put a steel 696 cylinder in mine to give it a little extra mass, and that opens up the possibilities for different loads as well. Heavy bullets can be inertially dislodged from the case under the heavy recoil of this lightweight, so the factory specifies lighter bullets. With a little more weight in the gun, you can increase the weight of the projectile without running the risk of jumping crimp and tying up the cylinder.

I put a big dot sight on mine, too.



Better grips would also help with the slap, but I haven't done anything about that yet.
