Not sure what I'd use it for, but I want one.
That would be better served with the 3 inch SP101.For one thing, the Single series frame size and the bird head grip, no adjustable sights, make it suitable for concealed carry of a single action.
Anyone got one of these yet?
It's from the Lipsey's site.

If I were to buy this bird's head, it wouldn't be for concealed carry. Just a fun gun for the range or for hiking.I'm not saying I'm anti SA, I have equal amounts of SA revolvers to DA ones, but I just can't say that they're better for concealed carry.
Yeah, the 7 rounds is great, but reloads are far too slow and requiring that the hammer be cocked manually, while under stress, can lead to failure to shoot the target in time... if at all.
The ability of the DA revolver to draw the gun and pull the trigger has long supplanted the SA revolver as the superior defensive revolver. People 100+ years ago knew this and armed themselves accordingly.
Oh, the birds heads are terrific for hiking and woods walking. Fun at the range too. I was just responding to the other guys comment about them being good choices for concealed carry and for a SA, he's probably right.If I were to buy this bird's head, it wouldn't be for concealed carry.

As for SA revolvers being long supplanted by DA revolvers, well most any professional who carries a gun for work would say all revolvers were long ago supplanted by semi-autos.
I say that as a revolver person who only carries revolvers (double action).
