Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

I have a Spanish copy by Anitua & Charola and have fired it. The tricky part is extraction. I can't see where the M&H system is better than that needed for a SAA Colt.

No pics - wifey's BiL borrowed it to use as a prop for a historical presentation... I wouldn't let my 44 Spl & Russian SAA out of the house! SW

hi nebr,a couple of pics of mine,as you know the idea was to break the barrel & cylinder forward the spent cases fall out the live rounds stay in place via the bullet heads,problem is the suction on the cylinder pin pulling the barrel/cylinder assembly back.
this one is dated 181876.steve

You bet. It looks pretty much like yours except no finish remains. SW
