OT- New 12 shot revolver

Post by reo »

What do you guys think? I like it, wouldn't give up my Bearcat or Single Six, but I could see owning one. The link to USFA gives a lot more information on the gun.

Hmm. It isn't too cheap. Also, it seems to be a fixed sight only. I wonder what the accuracy of that gun is?

USFA is supposed to put out an excellent revolver and I would think this would be no exception. :)

I would think it would be easier to time an Odd number, then have each cock rotate the cylinder 2 spaces...

But then I'm not an engineer, so what do I know?

Cool - but THESE 12-shot revolvers are more powerful . . . :twisted:

Unfortunately, the bureaucrats decided they are "machine guns" :?: and they require an NFA stamp now.

(actually a top-break H&R 9-shot 22 was one of the most fun guns I shot as a kid)

I'd hate to be counting shots with someone armed with one of those! Number 7 would be sure to due me in! :shock:

seems like it would be awful heavy though trim down the cylinder a bit and i might buy one no need for all that extra steel

It's an answer to an unasked question.

~However~

I'd love to shoot one. The first one of you guys to get one let me know and I'll bring a brick of ammo to burn up. How's that?

I think I'd like the one with a 5.5" barrel. Yes, it's an answer to problem that doesn't exist, but there is definitely a "coolness" factor to it and USFA is known for quality. Those "ivory" grips have got to go though.
I know a whole lot about very little and nothing about a whole lot.

How about a triple threat revolver in 357, 22RF, and 410. I'd like to handle one of these.

Looks like an up to the 70s update of the Lemat. I wouldn't mind one of these. Bet it cost a ton to convert a Smith & Wesson though.

I would like to know who made it as well. If anyone has this old edition of Guns & Ammo perhaps they could look it up and tell us.
