Chiappa Revolvers: How do they shoot?

I have been looking at some of those Chiappa Revolvers. I've only held them at gun stores. Never shot one. They are pricey but I was considering a good snubby revolver for carry. They feel very good in the hand to me in hand but dropping $850 for one seems steep since I've never shot one.

I'm looking for input from people that own and/or have shot them a significant amount. Worth the $$$? Comfortable to shoot? Comparo's to other revolvers would be good as well.

If anyone in the Austin area has one and is willing to let me try it at a range I'd appreciate that as well. PM if that is the case. :cheers2:

Thanks in advance.

The internals look like a swiss watch. I think they could have simplified a lot with DAO lockwork instead of the faux hammer.
