Our Assessment: This is an interesting, very light (listed at 10.6 ounces) 7 shot revolver in .22 Magnum. It comes with beautiful  cocobolo boot grips. It is light enough for backpacking, hiking or any field use where weight is a consideration and .22 LR is not enough gun. Seven rounds of .22 Magnum is nothing to scoff at for a concealed carry revolver, either. Please see our photos and good luck!
