Pressing Mr. Still to evaluate a pistol is rather unfair. Evaluations with much importance should not be made upon one inspection. Such a determination would require quite a bit of research, and would not be made in haste. I am sure that any conclusions that Mr. Still has published in his books are the result of lengthy, intense research and are not based upon one evening's examination of a few pistols by the fireside.

He has obviously given a preliminary observation that is extremely forceful and we should thank him and then conduct research. He has indicated the path.
