So, I have asked a local shop to order me a pair of Uberti "Patron" SA Revolvers. And while I have been patiently waiting for the call, my wife (a.k.a. Butter d' Mouse) has found a new set of irons that have caught her eye and has asked me to research them.
She is interested in the Cimarron Thunderer, in 38 SP with a 3 1/2" barrel...
Now my wife is 5' and has small hands. So I am thinking that the Bird's Head style grip frame, may in fact be a better match for her. She also wants the shorter barrel, 3 1/2", rather that the 4 3/4". Now my 1st instinct is to insist on the longer barrel, for accuracy. But I know I would be 'convincing' her and I should just let her choose her own guns.
I will be reloading a light, gallery load for her in these, to keep recoil at a minimum. While still letting her be able to play the game effectively.
So I am here to see if anyone has any experience with this revolver they can share...
As always, Thanks for all the advice.
