The Windicator configuration here is compact and practical, built around a 2-inch barrel with a full underlug and a shrouded ejector. The serrated top rib offers a non-glare surface, and the blued finish is applied consistently across the frame, cylinder, and receiver.
The action is double-action/single-action with an exposed hammer, and controls include a push-forward cylinder release in the S&W style. Sighting is straightforward and robust: an integral ramped front sight pairs with a fixed rear topstrap groove.
This revolver is chambered in .357 Magnum with a six-shot cylinder, and the barrel is dual-marked with 'CAL.. 38 SPECIAL' over '.357 MAG.' The markings reflect the model’s chambering information directly on the barrel.
Origin and markings are clearly documented: C.I.P. proofs, an EAA COCOA FL import mark, and 'MADE IN GERMANY.DE' confirm manufacture and import. The frame bears the 'EA/R' model mark and the HWM oval logo. Black rubber finger-groove grips with molded checkering complete the package and provide a secure hold.
