Nicely fitted all round and it feels very old school. The sights are fine but sharp and narrow, more precise and better than the Mk IV I think, the trigger was way better too. This gun feel a lot more like a vintage Smith. Curious serial number maybe due to the commemorative: 222-777-xx. I am glad I have it although it's 2 months out from pick up thanks to these silly NJ rules. I spent less on it than on my weekly Costco run.
