I have also fired one of the newest model Ruger SP-101 revolvers, It's fit and finish were not worth a $310.00 price bump. In my not-so-humble opinion it's trigger was not any better, I recently got to shoot an almost new (less than 50 rounds) Model 63, MSRP of the Charter Arms Pathfinder is $459.00 They will probably fit her smaller hands just fine. If I were going to keep the gun for myself I would change them,īut it's going to be a graduation gift for a young lady, The rubber grips are very slender and resemble Pachmayer "Compac" grips, I expect it will take a bit of shooting to get all the internals smoothed out. I'll probably use some orange sight paint to fix that.īy tight I mean it needs some breaking in,Įverything moves where and when it is supposed to move,īut everything is a bit more effort than you would think is necessary.īut it is a bit "gritty" compared to a well used pistol, It seemed to disappear under bright light, The surface has more of a matte look than a glossy sheen. It's stainless steel but looks to be bead blasted, I was hitting water bottles at 25 yards with it. I went through 250 rounds of ammo the first day,ġ00 of Mini Mag, 100 of Remington Golden Bulk,Īnd 50 rounds of Federal Bulk from Wal Mart,Įvery round went off with a nice rim dent. I'm told that the HKS J-frame speed-loaders fit it. It fits a holster I made for a S&W Model 34 perfectly, It is virtually the exact size and shape of a S&W J-frame, This revolver has a very solid heft to it and feels good in your hand.

Okay, Okay, a Czechpoint is a bit cheaper, Overall I'm very satisfied with the little shooter. Thursday I took it out and ran some rounds through it, Wednesday I purchased a brand new 4" Target Pathfinder by Charter Arms (),
