357 still seems like an odd pairing in a SAA, but it handles well. Shooting 158gr @ 1220fps was not much different than a 250gr at ~750. I’m very impressed!

I am sorely tempted by THIS but the sights are practically useless to me. Now to be sure it would be nothing but a fun gun for range use only and I'm much more realistic of my offhand shooting capabilities than when I tried the .38 version 8-10 years ago but I'm still having a hard time talking myself into spending the money...
Blacken the brass grip frame, stock it with some Maple or American Holly (maybe even Resin Ivory) and it sure would look good even if I couldn't shoot it worth a hoot!
