Classic and Classic DX's look very similar to me besides the addition of the DX on the barrel.

Not very much difference in the guns themselves as far as I can tell- just some extras that came with DX's.

I've seen pics of DX 50yd factory test targets with @2" groups which probably some standard Classics could do better- but both models were very well made revolvers with excellent fit and finish in my opinion.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know if the standard Classics came with test targets from factory like the DX's?
