Since the Sentinel is no more, it might be worth trying a Diamondback Arms "Sidekick" when they come out in November. They are a re-make of the High Standard Double Nine, which was a cowboy-ed version of the Sentinel, but with interchangeable cylinders, for about $300, if the roll-out is on time.

My Wrangler was/is a severe disappointment.

You can find nice used Sentinels for $300-400.
I got mine well used back in '78. Traded a guy for a crappy Model 66 Nylon that wouldn't feed worth a chit. It's been my beater gun for over 40 years with nary a problem.


Around here, a Sentinel will go for $500 at least, for whatever reasons, they are priced like gold. When I was a kid, I had a Double Nine variant (The Marshal), and it shot quite well, I really liked it. If it hadn't gotten stolen a few years ago, I'd still have it and use it, it was a pretty nice gun for what it was.

You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
