Default Positively Marvelous!! Bob Marvel

Picked this up a couple weeks ago of another forum. I had to see what all the fuss is about with these. I have to say it is all true the gun is fantastic shoots like a 5" pistol with about same recoil but in a commander. I have put about 500 rounds through the gun and like it more every time I fire it. If you guys ever get a chance to buy one DO IT! You won't be disappointed.

Looks like a fine shootin' iron.

But I gotta be honest, the billboard kind of turns me off. I think it would have been a lot more tasteful if the had put their logo behind the slide serrations and left the rest of the slide clean.

Thanks for the post and pictures, Wilsoncrafter. I have been looking at them on line for a couple of years and like the looks. They have a trick recoil spring set up I believe that reduces felt recoil and help keep on target. They look great. Thanks for the range report.
