I love this gun. I had a pair prior to purchasing this one, (I'm on the cusp of purchasing another, to completely replace the originals...read on...) and only one of the pair was anything like functional, the other having rough milling and a horrific jamming problem. Now, holding out hope yet for Pietta's Starrs and the constant improvement this company never fails to exhibit, my faith has been rewarded. Granted, the action was a little stiff at first, the metals binding up against each other a bit, but that worked itself out rather quickly. The only complaint I have is that the takedown screw on this improved model sticks...and sticks *hard.* However, with a little sanding and some patience, that can be cleared right up.
