This is my 640-3. Zit and all.
Tam is to blame. I recall her saying something to the effect that if you pulled the trigger a thousand times you'd end up with a really good trigger pull.
Being who I am, I said, "why dry fire when you can shoot"? Why use .38 when you have .357? Now I know. Ouch. But I do have an honest 600 rounds through the gun without a hiccup (from the gun). To be fair, it was a shot 50 rounds at a time not all at once. This is the first gun I've owned where I had to force myself to finish a box of ammo. The first gun where I didn't have to force myself to take ammo home. I really don't like shooting it. The sights suck, recoil is harsh, lookitthat fireball! OK, the fireball is fun.
This not even as light as Jay G's Snubby From Hell™. I remember when I first read about the Snubby From Hell™, my very first thought was, "like my gun but LIGHTER?" No. Way. Ever.
But I learned a lot from this gun. I learned how to properly fire double action. I learned that how you hold a revolver is not the same as how you hold an auto. I learned that when Tam says "dry fire" she doesn't mean "go shooting".
