I had not read about finding iron frames at the factory site.

Interesting.  Especially the part about if "you have to ask, you can't afford it."

I'd prefer something I can go out and play with.

Would be interesting to reseach if/how one could modify another type of original era revolver to become a rare G&G iron-frame model.....

Sorry iffn I offend any one but I`d sooner spend £300. (Or however much they think its worth)... on a nice 2nd gen 1860  ;D

Incoming!!!        Phut!

Must be a dud, 'cos I agree with PUK.

Not at all impressed with the state of that item or the auction site. :-\

Why didn't they just put it up for auction and let it find it's own value, then we would have seen what it was worth.

Looks something like the repro I treid to make in my down time when in the forces in Germany. (Utter rubbish,,,waste of steel and time!)

I did make a wicked 18" Bowie out of a Landrover spring,,,got stolen!! :'(
