    Don't listen to these people.The Chinese milled all of their steel from solid block.
    Mainly from old railroad ties. Chinese have been making metal for thousands of years....anyone who says Chinese metal is pot metal garbage is not educated in com
    block guns. The Chinese do one thing great and that is copy stuff. These guns were
    designed initially to handle a 7.62x25mm Tokarev which is as hot as about a .357 mag
    or light load .357 sig. Just make sure she will feed HP. Polish the feed ramp, and
    if it doesn't look into cor-bon powerball 100g +P or Buffalo Bore Hard Cast +P. That 5 inch barrel will fling that round to about 1500 fps or more.
