Adam;
I currently carry a Colt Det. Special (circa 1970's) that I bought back in the mid 80's, used. It had seen a lot of holster wear, so I had the gun reblued & tuned up. The gun is one of two that I use as my primary CCW piece. The gun is a bit heavier than the usual S&W chief special, et al, but I don't notice the weight while carrying, and I like the advantage of a 6th shot.
Enjoy the 'new' gun............
