eThis was a good idea poorly marketed. the name Metropolitan did not help IMHO. I would have used Official Police HB , for heavy barrel. or Colt New Police Mark 3 ,and would have offered a stainless version as well, although at the time NYPD was a blue gun only department. This revolver like the Official Police Mark 3 was vastly under appreciated, and until recently , undervalued. If you have one you have a reliable , dependable friend for life, and if you see a hearse with a roof rack ,maybe more . if you load this bull strong revolver with my favorite load of Buffalo Bore plus p 158 lhp, you have a 357 quality load, without the blast and flash. Fast followup shots ,and a heavy slug going out of that 4 inch muffler sized pipe at over 1150 fps. a peace officer's dream. Enjoy your revolver , you can cover my six with that wheelgun anytime.

during the hollowpoint phobia craze ,NYPD issued 158 swc lead plus. This proved to be a good fight stopper, the 158 nonplus p is almost as good ,with less overpenetration than the rnl,best compromise would be Buffalo Bore 158 lhp ,standard pressure round
