For those of us who go into the wilderness areas of Montana, punch pistol bullets used to be very different. Those were serious about, uh, punching.

I like everything about my SA-35 a lot, except for the trigger profile and the wretchedly, awfully designed spur. Why the heck SA wouldn’t improve it by getting rid of the two sharp corners that touch the hand with a proper grip is beyond poor judgement. I‘d like to know the rationale behind...

Let us know what you think after you get a chance to try it, please.

I’ve carried this a little now and have worked with drawing and reholstering. It draws very nicely and reholstering is fairly typical of leather IWB rigs (bit challenging, but doable). It carries as comfortably as is possible with a 4.7 inch barrel fed by a 15 round magazine. It doesn’t pull...

Hello, I’ve been hunting and shooting for decades, but just joined this forum after buying the SA-35. I see negative experiences on a thread or two here. Does anybody like theirs? I’m impressed enough with the base pistol to tune out some wrinkles, if necessary. The only thing I’m not liking...
