Its all-steel construction provides excellent strength and longevity, particularly when shooting full-power .357 Magnum loads, while its ergonomics allow for confident handling and quick follow-up shots. Although typically less refined in fit and finish than higher-priced competitors, the 971 VRC stands out for its reliability, practical design, and excellent value.
