I have an Unberti with a box serial numbered correctly to the gun.  The box though, says Cattlemen, but the barrel of the gun says Regulator?  Are these two different models and perhaps I have some kind os mixup, or is this normal?

If this is the wrong forum for such a question I apologize, I had a tough time deciding.  With all the Italian guns out there, I'm surprised they don't have a section or following.

Lincoln Co. Regulator

While I'm not absolutely certain that this is the case, I have found that the Italian guns are given a "title" (cattleman, regulator.peacemaker, etc) by the manufacturer. However. some importers want to give a model their own "title" for varoius reasons. It's the same gun, just with a different name. The importer will tell the factory what "title" they want on the various models they import. At the factory. the gun was probably stamped wrong  and shipped anyway, and no one noticed, as most people at that point are checking the numbers not the names.
