Default The Evil Twin

I have two Model 19's in 2 1/2 inch barrels, and really like them. I have always thought them to be the best, most evenly balance revolver made. Even, so, I have put it off for two long, so this weekend, I will add a Colt Diamondback 2 1/2 inch to my collection, and see for myself which one's deserves "the best" mantle.

Don't know which one you will like but I bet you have fun figuring it out!

Sorry so long getting back on this. I acquired 2 Diamondbacks a week apart, both 2.5 barrels both pretty new in their boxes. I guess the question of which one is best will have to wait. I can't bring myself to shoot either one of them. Darn it, that's what I hate about collecting!
