So far, the only reviews I have seen are obviously puff pieces. No one has seriously looked at this new revolver (and yes, it's a whole new revolver with an old name on it). I haven't see anyone who really knows his stuff take a VERY close look. Assessment of REAL quality.

Does timing work like an old Colt DA or is it now like a new revolver (the S&W way)?
Are chamber mouths correct
Is the forcing cone correct
Bore actual diameter, consistency, and is it tapered (I'd be SHOCKED if it was).
How well is the ejector star machined? (Something S&W is currently struggling with)
How is accuracy, benchrest or machine?


From what I have seen thus far, Colt has made some good decisions. I'm wondering exactly how good the quality actually is.
