I bought mine new in Nov. 2006 and aside from taking it to the range and shooting it until it got hot and the cylinder started to drag (probably 30-40 rounds in about 5-10 minutes) I can't complain about mine.I shoot at a 25 yard indoor range and I can shoot it fine out to there no problem.I hand load mine with 180 and 200 grainers pretty hot and it doesn't mind at all.I will add this when I got mine it was completely dry of lube or oil so look to see if they packed it that way if you choose to get one.All in all I like it and don't plan to get rid of it anytime soon.
