Even a Model 28 with magnas jumps around a lot in my hands and is pretty unpleasant to shoot. I had the Culinas make me a couple sets of Coke pattern smooth targets for my Highway Patrolman and my 29-3. MUCH better handling and easier on me when shooting. I am a small guy with big hands, 5'9" and 165lb with large+ glove size. N frame "Cokes" are perfect.
