I bought a SS 44 special Bulldog used. I put some Pachmyers on it and shot it some then had trouble with the ejector so I called Charter arms got a label and sent it back. I got it back in about 10 days they replaced some parts, fixed all my complaints and said they thought the grips were causing some funchioning problems so they replaced them all for no charge.
Is it a magnificent example of the gun makers art-no! Is it a functional, accurate handgun in an effective caliber- yes!
Just my opinion, good luck and good shooting!
PS hope you reload or it gets expensive! Tim
