Avoid the revolvers with brass frames. Brass-framed revolvers tend to have a poorer quality fit and finish. Buy one with a steel frame.
I think mine looks good, with that being said: Mine has taken the impression of the cylinder on the breech face. No, it's not because of loading hot, but that's the problem... Even shooting mouse phart loads; you will wear out a brass frame. God forbid if you do decide to throw enough powder to make getting the ball to be flush with the cylinder face difficult.
