European American Armory Windicator .357 Mag Nickel Revolver

A: John, This is a Nickel alloy frame. So it is very hard and strong. Plenty of carbon steel in this frames metal alloy composition.

A: no it is not steel it is a nickel alloy frame.

A: John, this pistol has a Nickel Coated Steel Frame according to EAA. Model's 770125 & 770123 are the only two "Alloy Framed" Revolvers that cannot be sold to any state with melt down point laws. Details from EAA here : https://eaacorp.com/guns/handguns/windicator-weihrauch-112

A: the steel version will be most durable for hot/heavy loads I will say a quality alloy gun can outlast a poor steel gun. in real life I doubt you will see much difference for carry I would go alloy for a pure range gun steel

A: John, EAA has tested the Alloy pistol to handle the same PSI/Proof Loads as the Blued version so no worries. I own the Blued version and it is built like a tank.
