I have owned 4 in my lifetime and liked them all. One of them, a target 4 inch gun was an excellent shooter. I currently have 2. A 3 inch Original 70's gun and a newer bulldog Pug. I carry and shoot the Pug alot. It is accurate enough for its intended purpose and the trigger isnt bad. It shoots a bit low left for me. The original is a better gun tho. My old 4 inch target model was as accurate as my Smith 66.I let that one go to a buddy and when he passed he left it to his son. I get to shoot it occasionally. I like the .44 special. Still dreaming of a 24/624 tho.
