The first one was also said to be efficient at hunting rabbits from long distance accurately. I'm not sure about safety features though, so if you're collecting a old .357 model you may need to look into methods of improving safety features if you intend to use it for anything other than sitting in a display case.
I'm not a big gun nut though, so you might want to ask around. I heard Leaflet is big on guns. She might be able to provide you with useful information for your quest. Not sure how available she is for idle chatter, but it's possible she might have information for you already available in her archived videos.
