I'll be able to buy when I'm 30 at this point

30?! I'll be happy at this rate to see one by the time I turn 65!

Yeah, Coffinmaker probably carried an original when he was a kid.   :)

Whenever it comes out, it'll be nice. I shouldve really put in an order for a nickel plated one in .45 colt

If'n I was 30 I might could hold my horses,  at my age my patience is rarer than Unicorn farts !

Heck, I've still got an original, just want to be able to shoot one a little more regularly.

Been waiting 20 years for one...a few more months won't matter much to me!  When I added my name to the list at the first of the year, they told me it would be the end of the year before they showed up in the U.S.  Any way you look at it, I'll eventually have an early Model 3 in hand.

Just my $0.02 worth!

Considering the pandemic lockdown & annual August furlough Italian workers take , and US Customs
I suspect  "end of the year" (2020) is even feasible.

One may have cool to their jets till  end of 2021 if then  :-\

With this pandemic going on and Italy hit so hard we may have a disruption in regular models much less new and custom orders. I have a custom rifle on order that was said would be finished this spring but now with this pandemic I'm not holding my breath for when I ever see it.

Cimarron has started a series of videos where Mike Harvey talks about his originals.  The first episode was about his McNelly Sharps carbine.  I posted that one in the BROW section.  The second episode he talks about his Texas Jack Omohundro American.  He mentions how the first sample from Uberti was "off".  I hadn't heard that story but it explains some of the delays.  He does not tell the story of how he acquired the gun, which is pretty interesting as well, but those of you waiting for the repro should enjoy it.

At or about the 7:45 mark Mr. Harvey Talks about his No. 3 American that belonged to Texas Jack.

For some reason I'm not getting any audio on those two videos. To bad as I was curious.

For some unknown reason, a 150 year old design has been having problems passing a 'drop test' for import. Who would've thought. Also the pandemic has in all appearances disturbed the production of, well, everything in Italy. I also have one ordered, hopefully by the middle of next year? ???

Well heck, 150 years ago they probably tried hard not to drop their pistolas. (smile)

I to am eagerly awaiting the availability of the new No3 American and came across these images from the Uberti Italy Facebook page.
