I have a chance to get one at a really good price but am wondering if anyone here has one and what they think about it.

JAP,

If the price is right buy it! She's light and does kick a bit with some loads but it's really light eh?

P.S. if you're really on the fence, P.M. me

Nope not really on the fence, the price is awesome. I just havent dealt with any of the airweight stuff. WAsnt sure of the track record as far as durability. I own several 44's but their all blue steel or ss and was more concerned with any quirks that have come up relative to their composition.

Jap,

Buddy it's hard to argue with the durability of Scandium. Whether it's J-frame .357 mags or N-frame .41&44 mags. These guns have breathed new life into the revolver as a carry piece, either in the city or the field.
Buy it dude! You know if you don't like it, I'll buy it from you when my tax refund comes in!

Ok, went and played a little today. Its not for the timid with full house loads but I wasnt planning on using it for anything but a woods gun anyway. Loaded with 44 specials its much easier.
