Great squirrel gun. I really don't care for the "high capacity" revolvers. The 8, 9, and 10 shot revolvers. Mainly because the chances of a fuggup are greater with them. The locking notch on the cylinder is so close to the one before it that if you cock it fast it can easily spin past the next chamber and stop on the one after that. Plus the ratchet notches are so close together that can cause problems. I have to be honest and say I have seen very few of these problems on the multiple chamber revolvers but I sure believe in Murphy's Law.

If you are thinking of getting a 648 with the 8 shot cylinder, jump on it. Any model 48 or 648 is a good one.
