And.... you can buy the mount at www.midwayUSA.com

BTW call DW and harrass them into building the 357 and 44 again (607-336-1174).
I bought all the barrels for mine and need a case, they made a nice on
reciently, much nicer than the old yellow padded case, its cut for all the
parts.

Old eyes are not a problem if you mount a 2x or 4x scope on the DW. I can
shoot mine like I had 20 year old eyes again. These great revolvers are
really fun to shoot with a scope. Try it; you'll like it.

Congratulations on the new "toy". I am on my third DW, having had one
22 with an 8" ventheavy and 2 .357's. My current Pistol Pac "baby"
that I bought new came with 4 barrels and now has 6 ( I added two 6"
in stainless - looks nice on the blued frame with stainless trigger,
hammer, and cylnder lock)... I am sure you will find the DW a great
shooter. The last time I went, I was plinking with a rent-a-cop.. he
had a new H&K in 40... nice gun.. but he couldn't hit a barn with it
past 10 yards. The DW is easy good to 25 (indoor range limit). Well
easy if your eyes are still younge.

Pinetor, NO drilling or tapping required. Just keep you eyes out for an AIMPOINT scope mount for the DW. You just remove the rear sight (no big deal) and it ...
