Picked up this PT-99 from a local pawn shop. It's from 1994 from what I've found. The grips were absolutely marred so I found some used ones in decent shape.

I took my new 605 to the range. After shooting 60X .38 special, 10X.38 special +P, and 10X.357 magnum rounds, I am really happy with this little revolver. No issues at all and I was pleasantly surprised with the first couple of cylinders through it and shooting ..38 spl and +P is fun@ Shooting magnum rounds with the tiny stock grips is torture and those are going to be replaced.

The pics are from before and after cleaning it and a target photo at 7 yards of the first three cylinders (there were a couple of flyers, but as Paul Harrell (RIP) would say, “Those are just me.”) I also brought my Model 19 to compare weight, recoil, and handling.
