Your new .357 is beautiful. :D
I've never held a birdshead to be able to determine whether it "fits" me or not, but these Grizzly Paw grips are just the ticket for me. I know Uberti makes a few birdshead 357s, however. I gravitate toward the "Stallion" Old West, as it has checkering:

Thanks for your kind words!

Somewhat. If you don't have the first click position, just the next three, it is the new hammer safety. In addition, the base pin will not have two notches, just one.
Looks like a single-notch base-pin, so "new design" safety mechanism. Not that hung up on the "4-Click" Colt aspect, as my 45 Colt Uberti has that neat little feature!
