I bought a 442-1 a little over a year ago and have put close to 1500 handloads and maybe 100 store bought ammo through it. It has served me very well and I couldn't be happier with the fit and finish. I would highly recommend one. Mine does not have the IL and you don't even know you've got it on your hip or pocket. I've seen some real nice photos on this forum of new model 21's and have been thinking on getting one of those. I just can't bring myself to buy the Thunder Ranch because of the ugly gold emblem on the side. Does anyone know if that can come off? How is it on there?

Lenny, M21's were made without the emblem on the side.

22-4,21-4 and 625. All have been excellent guns finish,accuracy and handling. I would not hesitate to buy any new revolver if I had the funds and the desire for it.
