Owned one? Shot one? Worked with one? Or just handled one? Not being contentious; just trying to clarify.


I'm left handed. They are not. I've handled and shot them. But quite frankly it isn't hard to spot rounded corners and dished polishing. I've spent hundreds of dollars putting defined lines back where they should be on "classics" and have to laugh when I hear that the newer ones are a much better product. They are basically the same minus a good trigger.
