Very pretty.
I did. wasn't too bad. I was able to use the original roll pin. The grips are Chigs grips box elder burl http://chigsgrips.com/?page_id=7 |

I put a pair of his rosewood grips on mine. He does great work!

The .327 mag with a 2” barrel has about the same recoil as a .38 special, but also has particle blowback that peppers your face...WEAR SHOOTING GLASSES!
Sounds like your cylinder may be out of alignment. I'd have the gun checked out. |

| I always thought that if Thor carried a pistol instead of a hammer, it would have been an RUGER SP101. But this is 2019, so Thor would also have to consider a KIMBER K6S with six rounds. The DAO are really nice, but the new DASA version should be outstanding.
If people would mind their own damn business this country would be better off. I owe no one an explanation or an apology for my personal opinion.

| Have you looked at the Kimber K6s? I don't think anyone can consider a non-lightweight snubby defensive revolver without considering this. If nothing else, it gives you another round. And I think it's actually smaller. |

It is a TALO edition and came with the black cerakote.

I don't think so. I never cared for the Hogues on my Rutgers, but Pach Diamond grips are a perfect fit for my admittedly small hands.
