Hermann Weirauch GmbH Manufacturer. Known as the HW 357 in Germany

Original manufacturer of the "Arminus" brand of revolvers, and very well respected by German revolver aficionados. Imported thru EAA. Eaa originally named that revolver the "Vindicator", but due to legal issues, changed the name to "Windicator", some years back. A very good "bin parts"(As in virtually no hand fitted parts!) revolver for the money. They make 2 models and of the 2, the .357 is the best, as it has a solid steel frame. The .38 special does not have a steel frame, and by Weirauchs instructions, is not +P rated. But the .357 model will handle all you can put thru it. The Windicators are basically "K" frame size revolvers, and will use the HKS 10A speed loader.
Now, the downside to the Windicator: Very few aftermarket accessories exist for the revolver, due to them not being big on the American market. And it is not easy to do a detail strip of the pistol, due to it's construction style. No sideplate, instead it is a "clamshell" style frame, with the grip subframe carrying the lockwork, inserted into the main frame from the bottom and then pinned into place. And before you scoff at that style of construction, Charter Revolvers have always been built that way, and in truth, it does make for a stronger frame then a sideplate revolver. But full dis-assembly does take some time and patience due to the construction used.
Action timing has always been very good on the Windicator, with very fast and controlled "carry up", prior to cylinder lockup. I have yet to see any Windicator or any of the old Arminus revolvers be out of time, lo these many years. I have owned several over the years, and even the used Arminus .38 snubby I purchased out of a Pawn shop for about $50(It looked like crap, but cleaned up well) still worked just fine, w/ no action issues what so ever.
EAA offers the Windicator in what they call their Wonder finish, IIRC. Electroless Nickle, and that is a very tough finish to defeat. Just make sure you get the HW 357 model, NOT the .38!
Any price around $300 or lower, and you will be fine.
