I will be trying out this Chiappa at the range later......

Second that, most of it was out of focus... also here’s a hint don’t have the cover music track as loud as the poor audio in the first place... i did love the almost forgot part....

Good to hear the positive reports (especially regarding the trigger pull on the release version).

I have a 9mm in nickel awaiting; ordered in June and apparently now with the dealer… shakeshout

Only comes with three moon clips!!! From my days of the S&W 625 they are consumable. They don’t last a great length of time. They cost pennies to produce. A bag of 50 will do for starters...

I tried the moon clips yesterday with this .357 mag. Easy enough to drop into the cylinder, but actually fitting the rounds / removing from the moon clips (using the included removal tool) isn't something I would want to do often.

Months ago in activation of getting this revolver, I bought four 5 Star speed-loaders (and bedside blocks), in orange, really like them:

Which groups is that being discussed on Gh0st?

Really warming to these now - especially interested with how light and handy everyone seems to be saying they are (for an LBR) and the sights look awesome too. Also like the idea of hanging onto 9mm if I have to hand in my LR at some point in the future.
