I saw a note on Sportsman's Warehouse listed for $1059.00 (or thereabouts.)
I'd like to revise an earlier statement.
The 5 1/2" barrel will launch a 230-grain bullet as will a 6 1/4" 1911. Think about that when you load the revolver with +p ammunition.

You might want to look at the Zastava (Yugoslavian) TT57 (M57) You may be able to find it for less and with an extra round longer magazine.
Happy hunting.
