I have never seen one in person. Might be a great concept but the firing mechanism seems way too complex to me.

Also, the notch that is coming out from under the front of the cylinder is a gas port. That would be quite the surprise for someone that had their finger too close as it goes off. However, I hear they shoot good. It's an ugly gun IMO but I would give it a try.

Yea, it's ugly and I would try it too. I've always been a sucker for ugly.

I can not get into them, my friend wants one bad. they have them in shops here for high 700's in blue.

Way overpriced.

Ya, I know they are spendy guns. I would like to check one out.

At some point they announced that they were going to put RFI chips in all of their guns. I would not purchase due to that stand.

What is an RFI chip?

I have a snubbie. The recoil with 357 is not bad. A unique revolver with a heavy trigger. The one pictures is Over grand.

RFI chips is a marker which is on all the stuff you buy in or on most of the retail stores. Allows for an easy inventory of product and tracks sales us ing a transmitter as opposed to a scanner that reads UPC codes.
