I haven't used the 357 Mag, but I do own the 22LR/22Mag version with a 6” bbl. My only complaint is the handle. It's small for me (I have fairly large hands), and the way its constructed it doesn't have a full metal frame under the grip. It has about a 2” post that attaches to the grip with screws, so no replacement handles will fit it.

I bought it because it's the only double action revolver I could find that shoots both 22 rounds (it comes with a second cylinder). It's OK, but with so many choices in small 357s I would go with a Charter Arms, Rossi, Taurus, or if you want to shell out the bucks, you can't go wrong with Smith and Wesson.

I saw a hammerless S&W for $489 (outside my price range) but it was a beautiful gun.
