I must admit I also find an I fluted cylinder to be somewhat striking. It can take a gun that already says "all business" and make it even meaner. At least from an apprearance standpoint.

I do think they tend to look better on stainless guns, even though I typically prefer blued.

Of course the only revolver I own with an unfluted cylinder is this Uberti 1860 Army clone, which kind of negates my silly "stainless" argument above.

Oh....My....Good...Grief. That is divine!

Make that a .44Mag and I would start a new religion in its honour...

Thanks. That's the small frame model 97. They make it in .22, .357, .44 spl, 45 Colt.

They do make the large frame model 83 in .44 Rem mag.
