Delving deeper, the revolver includes an internal lock for added safety, red ramp front sight paired with an adjustable rear sight for precise aiming, and a single/double action mechanism that provides versatility in operation. The easily removable muzzle compensator allows for customization based on ammunition type, with two included compensators—one optimized for lead bullets and another for jacketed—to fine-tune recoil reduction.
