I think this model / type of firearm is not worth buying. For $500, you could get a good S&W 357, 22, 38, etc. I just bought a Colt pre Woodsman for $460. I think its novelty item with much less usefulness than people realize, but if you want a gun like this, the S&W should at least be a well made version.
