Picked this gun up from my LGS today. Along with it, the Henry Single Shot 357 Magnum Rifle. But, that's another thread.
Like all the CZ Colts, this gun measures out perfectly. Throats are all a very tight .225". Barrel gap is a consistent .003". Action is slick as buttered glass.
This gun is the 4.25" barrel version.
Off to the shooting bench with more information to come later.

So, fortunately I can post from my bench. Informal shooting propped up produced groups that averaged about 1.7". I believe the gun would do better, but I was simulating real world conditions.
Like all the CZ Colts, I'm impressed!!!

What's an alternative universe application when shooting?

Wadduya think of that front sight? I don't like it. Hopefully there'll be options soon. But, I have a plan to alter this one... |

However, they've had a 44 Mag and this one for a long time. For some reason the Single Shots sell like hotcakes in rifle calibers, but not in pistol calibers here. |

Congrat's encore64!
I've been looking hard at these KC's too. I haven't heard a single complaint yet about these 22's. I'm keeping my fingers crossed they do a run with un-fluted cylinders. I haven't seen a photo of the 6" version yet, can't even find a picture online, does anyone have one they can share?

I wish they'd make them in 327 Federal or 32 Magnum...

Ddddmorgan: Since CZ bought Colt, the quality of some of their firearms has significantly improved.

I haven't seen a photo of the 6" version yet, can't even find a picture online, does anyone have one they can share? The 6" Version isn't listed on the Colt Website. I've seen mention and photos on several press releases. But, haven't seen any mention of availability... |
