I doubt you need to worry about the ruggedness of your revolver: Dan Wessons are renowned for their durability, as long as you maintain the proper gap between barrel and cylinder and keep the gun clean and well oiled.

Your gun is an example of High Standard's completely witless approach to the firearms market. Instead of concentrating on the one thing it did very well, making .22 caliber match pistols, it tried to be all things to all shooters, and ended up going out of business in 1984.
