The .44 special is a much overlooked cartridge. Taylors and Uberti make some high quality goods.

Never fired a break-top before. Love to add one to my collection. And one look at Uberti’s prices, you can believe they’re proud of their guns.

Top break revolver frames aren’t as strong as swing-out frames, for obvious reasons. They were made for black powder rounds, and pretty much became obsolete with higher pressure smokeless powder.

Actually, an exception that occurs to me are the old Webley revolvers, some even adapted to shoot .45 acp.
You can get an old H&R or Iver Johnson in .38 S&W for about $150.

Hasn’t Smith and Wesson been a long time supporter of gun control?

An ordinary .45 acp load is equivalent to a .455 Webley proof load.

No.
They signed on to some of Billy Bob Clintoon's agenda to avoid being targeted in things like the Assault Weapons bill. as did Bill Ruger with his refusal to produce 30 rd Mini 14 mags.
Didn't work out the way either hoped.
S&W has new owners and is a solid 2nd Amend supporter as is Ruger.
They both produce excellent American made firearms.

Worth the wait. But is it "Worth waiting for?"
