I know it seems like a 2" .44 mag would be a real monster to hold onto with full magnum loads, but in reality.......well in reality it's much worse, haha. For me and this gun it was love at first sight and it's one of the sexiest pistols I've ever laid eyes on. It's pretty fun to shoot with .44 special loads, but every once in a while I'll feel like load'n it up with magnums and let'n the dog off the leash. Loads of fun!

It's definitely a handful!


Not near as bad as I thought it would be though. At 39.6oz it's a hefty little snubbie. The weight really balances the recoil nicely, but it still packs a good sized punch. Definitely a two-handed shooter...
