Excellent small revolvers. I have the 22LR/22Mag combo. Fun little shooter. Very high quality, have had zero problems.

I owned and shot one for a while. Just to small to be real useful.

Proves my point that I have made many times any gun that works is better then no gun.

It is a quality weapon and usefull beyond reason. I use mine on the trapline for dispatch, killing larger halibut, and with practice you can hit spruce grouse if fairly close.


I tend to use more than enough gun

ive got 3 of them.. a .22 short, a .22 lr, and a .22 mag... all are handy for what they're designed to do... with snake shot, they're deadly at 6' to any snake.. and with the defense loads that's covered too.. easy to carry, you'll forget they're in your pocket..

I shot one a few times many years ago.. I dropped a soda can 6 feet in front of me and could not hit it with five shots. Each shot missed in a different direction so I deemed the little thing as inaccurate. I don't know coulda been my fault? Very easy to carry and better than nothing for sure though. I'm sure I could hit a bad guy from 10 ft if I had too with one.


Cheers,
Jason


But what do I know?

Had one, sold it, big mistake. Bought a Black Widow version about 3 years ago with the 4 inch barrel and dual cylinders. This one is never leaving my possesion.
When you hold it properly they are very accurate. Trigger pull is kind of stiff but that is the only negative. Thinking about ordering another with a shorter barrel for a pocket gun.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

i just boughtone in 22lr a few days ago and it works great and with the one inch barrel i can always hit a cereal box from about 25-30ft. i did notice the grip panels would move a fraction of an inch out of place after a few shots. i took the grip panels off and saw their was oil from the factory under the panels where they contact the grip frame and also the screw wasn't very tight. so i wiped the oil off and tightened the screw a bit but didn't want to tighten it too much because the grips are imitation pearl and i was worried if i made it too tight the screw might crack the grips. haven't fired the gun since i did this but hopefully it worked.

I had one for a while. It was the short barreled model that came with the belt buckle.

A quote from Mark Twain comes to mind:

"It was grand, it had but one flaw; you could not hit anything with it"


30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking.
