Don't recall the cylinder flutes being cattywhompus but I didn't look that hard. Marked price is pretty much what I recently gave for a S&W 617. FWIW the DA felt pretty good. The SA needs work. Feeling creep when dry firing is NOT GOOD. As a shooter my main issue would be with aftermarket support. Availability of grips, sights, springs, hammer, trigger, and all the parts we like to play with would be a concern for me. I own 4 and 6 inch 10 shot 617s, a 6 inch 6 shot 17, a 6 inch I frame, a 4 inch J frame, and a 2 inch J frame. My 22 revolver $$$s will continue to go to S&W.

Agree the fluting looks offset from the chambers. Good eye!!!

Believe that's one I'll have to pass on...
I guess at that price, I would too.

Yikes! They did manage to scribble something on just about every available surface.

I want one of those, except you are stuck with that rubber grip which I hate. No makes a wooden grip for it. Don't know if you can order from the Alfa factory but several very nice wooden grips show as accessory for on their web site. |

The various Alfa Proj models used to be about 2/3’s the price of a S&W. Too bad prices have risen, they filled a needed niche before. Don’t know about their quality since Commifornia doesn’t have them on the roster of “proven safe guns”. Lol.
