I wonder what prompted them to make it with a 3" barrel? It's not a concealed carry piece, or if it is there are tons better options. I know powerful stubby revolvers are a big fad now - the 2.5" Ruger Alaskan in .454 Casull and some other short barreled .44 Magnums out there - but a 4" barrel seems like a much more all around useful length.

Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
