Bought this little pistol for my darling wife. it is light, purse sized, and won't hang fire like a semi auto. thoughts about the weapon. Fired about 100 rounds through it. Trigger pull is heavier, which I wanted for her--avoid bang bang bang! when shooting bad guys. It is perfect for trail, hiking, attention getting (ONLY in the most adverse situations!!)
When using as single action, the satisfying click if the hammer being cocked tells mom that the pistol is indeed ready. I have some concerns about rapid fire in that the light weight may allow a swing right and high. This is important as the round is small and may need to be more carefully aimed in a home defense situation. Easily overcome with practice at a decent range. I like the front sight and the eight rounds. Easy to make the front sight line up in dim light.
I'd probably load the first two cylinders with snake shot the rest hollow points in snake country. At home all eight HP.
I did notice some scoring on the cylinder from the pawl moving the cylinder for each shot. Didn't expect that sort of wear early--but we did shoot it a bunch. Nice weapon, works for us as intended. Allows us time to get to the Mossberg.
