I have a 4" stainless I bought used back when newspapers were the information web. It's been shot so much the rifling shows ware at the forcing cone. It's what I use when I expect bad weather or adverse conditions. I also use it to test heavy loads, and dry fire practice.. It's never been apart, hesitated to function, or shown any loss of accuracy. The only revolver I own that has rubber grips on it, because it's all business. I'll never sell or trade it. Not even for a new one.
