    Re: Colt revolving rifle reproduction

    Hallo!

    I lost track, so someone else will need to chime in.
    IIRC, 2000ish- 2002ish?

    The Italians offered the Colt Root M1855 "revolving rifle" in .44 six shot, and the "Berdan types" were eager and hopefull for their .56 five shot military version.

    IIRC... they started out at $900 or $950, but the Euro rise/Dollar fall pushed that to $1250.

    Almost immediately, in our modern "law suit" culture- it fell victim to the potential of the original's potential flaw... cone end induced multiple discharges putting rounds through the shooter's forearm.

    Sellers tried to minimize this by saying they should only be fired with the trigger bow in the cup of one's palm so that nothing was in front of the cylinder.

    After sluggish sales, and the fears of sellers being sued, they started to appear in sale flyers and then disappeared.
