There is something refreshing about a revolver that skips the gimmicks. The Weihrauch Windicator is built in Germany, imported by EAA, and it goes about its job the old-fashioned way: a solid steel frame, a six-round cylinder chambered in .357 Magnum, and a double/single action trigger with an exposed hammer. This 6-inch version stretches out the sight radius and squeezes more velocity out of every round, which makes it the pick of the Windicator lineup for range work, woods carry, and handgun hunting duty.
The long barrel and steel construction work together here. Full-power magnum loads that snap hard in a lightweight snub feel far more manageable in this gun, and the finger-grooved rubber grips soak up what is left. Drop in .38 Special for cheap, soft-shooting practice, then load the magnums when it counts. The ramp front and fixed rear sights are simple and rugged, with nothing to knock out of adjustment, and the shrouded ejector rod kicks empties clear without fuss. A hammer block safety rounds out a design that favors function over flash.
Weihrauch has a long reputation for stout German machining, and the Windicator carries that DNA. Owners consistently describe these revolvers as tanks, the kind of gun you can shoot a lot, carry in the truck, or stash for home defense without babying it. The blued finish is clean and businesslike, and the lockup stays tight round after round.
This is a strong choice for a first centerfire revolver, a dedicated house gun, or a trail companion where .357 Magnum authority matters. Revolvers like this one reward simplicity: no magazines to spring-set, no fussy ammo preferences, just load six and go. If you have been wanting a full-size wheelgun that punches well above its station, the 6-inch Windicator deserves a hard look.
Yes. Like any revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, the Windicator safely fires .38 Special ammunition too. That makes practice sessions cheaper and much softer shooting, and many owners train with .38s and keep magnums loaded for serious work.
Quite well for the caliber. The all-steel frame and the extra weight of the 6-inch barrel soak up a lot of the recoil energy, and the finger-grooved rubber grips take the sting off the rest. Full-power magnum loads are noticeably more comfortable in this gun than in lightweight snub-nose revolvers.
The Windicator is manufactured by Weihrauch in Germany, a company with a long track record for durable, well-machined firearms and airguns. It is imported and distributed in the United States by EAA Corp of Florida.
It fits that role nicely. The DA/SA action is simple to run under stress, there are no magazine springs sitting under tension in storage, and six rounds of .357 Magnum offer proven stopping power. The 6-inch barrel also gives a longer sight radius, which helps with accuracy at the range.
