I enjoyed shooting the Colt yesterday afternoon. Carried it on an all day hike and shot it a bunch at rocks, stumps, etc. Love this one. I have S&W Model 27s and 28s as well and enjoy shooting them also, so I don't need to hear that one is so much better than the other. I just love big frame 4 inch guns (of any caliber) for carrying. The holster from Rob is one of the best I have used. I appreciate his work.
