Fit and finish is very very good, heck, I'm going to say it's better than my original series 70 Colt (I'll probably be burned for this).
Now to the negatives, the grips. Have to say it's a cheap plastic wood simulation. We verified by carving on the back with a knife. It's plastic. No problem though, a set of Pachmayr's wraparounds solved that.
Only problem I had is with the 3 dot sights, had a tough time with sight picture recovery during rapid fire at the 15 and 25 yard line. I'm just not a big fan with 3 dots sights. Fixed that real quickly by painting the rear of the front sight with a white base coat and then several coats of Revlon Red Hot Tamale. Oooo Baby, rapid fire is a breeze now. Not to mention it looks good!
For $400, it's a keeper and a bargain (if you can find one).

Sweet, Mikey...glad you like the gun. You know I sure like mine. Never shot it at 25 yds though, 'cause as old as I am, I have a hard time seeing that far!
One question though....I didn't know you used "Revlon" products....??
