The western style grip fills the hand and has long been toted as one of the most comfortable and natural pointing grips for a comfortable shooting experience. The stainless steel body is all but impervious to corrosion from the elements and paired with the white plastic grips offers shooters striking handgun guaranteed to stand out on the range. The crisp single action trigger breaks clean and the updated transfer bar safety all but negates the potential for an accidental discharge, This update prevents the firing pin from being engaged unless the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled to the rear after the hammer is cocked a bar will move up into position and the hammer falls on that bar which then engages the firing pin. This differs from the original cowboy guns where the firing pin was part of the hammer and resting the hammer down on a loaded chamber could be potentially dangerous.
