Model 19 with 2.5" barrel - how's it handle?

Back in the day, a few swipes with a file on each corner of the rear sight would fix the snagging issue, and if we needed a spurless hammer, we just made one, as there were plenty of spare parts available. Keep the chambers clean and no problems would be experienced with ejection until well after any reasonable ammo load was expended. Yes, that was then and this is now, but they worked well IMO as a plainclothes or CCW revolver. The HB M13 / M65 was, and is, probably a 'better' CCW revolver, but there are no flies on the M19 / M66 snubs either. I love mine!
