Gave my most recent 4" dw to son in law for Christmas last year. Just bought another in 6" from LGS. Rough as a cob with lots of rust, scratches and missing blueing.
I've got two revolvers that have had action jobs...slick as owl poop....
A Ruger Police Six and a Ruger Speed Six....
But I've handled two revolvers smoother ..one was a S&W 686..and one was a S&W Model 15 ...which was unbelievable,... one gun I should have purchased...
My DW's are smooth but not seriously so....I will chose to leave'em as they are...
