The Rossi was almost 15 years ago so I don't recall much about the pull. It did have a hammer so I shot it SA most of the time.

very first one I had was a Raven .25, didn't keep it too long.
(1 week if that). Then aquired a couple S&W 422 Target models in various barrel lengths. Then aquired a pair of 6" AMTIIs.
Then traded off all except one AMT II. Recently got a P22 Walther, AMT IV Longslide, Berreta 92, and an Argentine ported .45.
Carry them all at one time or another.

Smith & Wesson 686 21/2 357 mag. Bought used and still have in my safe. I have replace all the internal and polished the stainless to a high gloss look. I have had it now 20 years and counting.

Ruger Single Six .22lr/.22mag. Dad bought it for me for my 7th birthday. I'd still have it, too, if it weren't for all the boating accidents that keep claiming all the guns that I once had...

S&W 4006 got it back in 91, still have it but it sure is heavy for it's size compared to all the new alloy and polymer frames now a days.

My first pistol was a .32 Berreta my dad gave me. My brother stole, err, sold it a few months later. Sweet little weapon, could get 3", 5 shot groupings at 25 yards.
