Rawhide,
I've got a Plinker and while heavy, not as bad as a S&W 44 mag or other large frame revolvers. Mine has a 5 1/2" barrel and the weight is really just in your hand, no overhang feeling. The revolver just hangs there and it's not much heavier then a 32/20 but it is heavier then a 45.
As you can imagine, no recoil.
