Well  saw one one sale a real low ball price - brand new blued steel 4 inch bbl
Was intrigued by the switch out cylnders 22 LR and 22 MAG
Only shot 30 rounds through it so far , will pound on it when it isn't raining.
So far ,
Fit and finish A+
Cylinder lock up and timing A+
Sights A +

Only thing left to test is longevity of quality ...
Stand  by for further,  so far not to shabby, have had worse Smith and Wessons

Sounds like you got a good one. Have you swapped the cylinders out yet?

yes
easy to do  point of impact is off with 22 mag but up close not so bad

I will use 22 Long Rifle mostly

Another thing I really like is there is no three page warning stamped into the barrel .

And this gun has a deep black finish that reminds me of the old  Colt Royal blue they put on the Pythons back in the day ,  I haven't seen a finish this nice in a long time.

Ok about 200 rounds down range
Pros
accurate
reliable
single action trigger = excellent
finish  perfect and pretty , nice and mirror shinny
grip is nice
size is perfect for me not too small not too big for a 22 RimFire

Cons
double action trigger =  terrible hard but still manageable


That is it, for now I am really happy

Put another 200 rounds through it today

Very accurate at 25 feet (in single action)  double action is stiff but doable

This is going to be a fun gun if it holds up and I don't see why it won't.

Extractions was sticky after I shot it fast a few times, I think some cosmoline is melting inside the extraction rod
Causing this, after cleaning it was ok.
