Yep. She's planning on A/B-ing her new gun with her old one, as well as A/B-ing various ammo.

Its probably going to be a bit before we can get to the range as my wife has surgery scheduled for tomorrow. I'm quite interested to see how it handles vs her other CA revolver as this one weighs only 12 oz (!!). Maybe I'll do a stupid video on it...

It doesn't have the barrel clocking issue that Zee had, does it?

Nope - that was the very FIRST thing I looked at when we went to pick it up. Seems to be fine, blah, blah, blah...
I need to put some pink fingernail polish on the front sight though. Interestingly, my wife's other Charter Arms is ported, but this one is not.
