Anyone have one or shot one? Definitely a Cold War oddball which I like. I have a Ruger Blackhawk 6” and a S&W no dash 686 4”. I kinda had an itch for a 2” but no need to drop money on a colt, Ruger or S&W since I won’t carry it like I do on my 686 while fly fishing in Wyoming. I couldn’t sleep last night and while a little loopy I ordered one of the import Serbian surplus, 2” (some say it’s 2.5”). Price is only $250 and I figure it will let me tinker on it ; see if I can do a little work on the trigger. It will just be a range gun. Zastava M83 .357 $250 |

It comes out to about $320 after tax/shipping/transfer for me, which isn’t BAD, but that’s only about $100 away from a nice used/LEO trade-in Model 10, possibly even a 64, or a nice Ruger Security Six. If I ONLY had $320 and literally no more, OK. Otherwise, the S&W or Ruger is gonna blow the Zasatava out of the water. |

Dry firing the shit out of it right now to smooth things out, and it’s smoothing out nicely. I may swap the spring soon if i feel like cracking the action open. Kinda scared to open it up since I don’t know anything about what it will look like on the inside |
