What plans do you have for it ? To carry, hunting, or just cause you "need" it . To carry it's big, for a hunting side arm or short range deer it will work just fine, and who doesn't "need" another gun for their collection. Big cool auto.
What's your buddy asking for it? They are actually somewhat difficult to sell. I've only shot one in 44 mag. Nice shooter & I could actually feel the gun become lighter after every shot. Too damn big to carry on a hip & will most likely need a chest harness type holster.
