Just picked up one of these things today. Took it to the range and ran 100 rounds thru it. So far so good. I know its not everyones cup of tea, but I have not shot revolvers all the much so the crazy release is no big deal. So far Im happy with it, but have lots of ammo left to put thru it before it GTG. Anybody else have one one? If so I would love to here feedback. Good and bad.

I had one for about 6 months. I put about 250rds through it shortly after I got it. 200rds of FMJ and 50rds of Gold Dot 135gr +P short barrel. It functioned fine, laser stayed zeroed, the cylinder release was easy to use, the ejector worked as it was supposed to.

I carried it often after that and felt pretty comfortable with it. The finish held up well to daily pocket carry. I painted the front sight, to make it easier to pick up, since the laser is a little difficult to turn on.

I traded it awhile back on a good deal. But if I can find a deal on one, I wouldn't mind having one again.
