I saw a Revolver ysterday it was a 44 mag. I don't remember if it was Sig & Johnson or Sig & Johanson, but it was something along those lines. It was stamped made in West Germany. It cost $300

Anyone on here ever heard of this?
 
JP Sauer & Sohn?

I've never heard of the marques you mention. The "Hawes" revolver pictured, the Interarms "Virginian Dragoon" and others were made by J.P. Sauer und Sohn (and Son), the Sauer half of SIG-Sauer. Perhaps this is what you were thinking of?
 
Sig Revolver

Hi
To my knowledge, the Interarms Virginia Dragoons that were imported before Interarms started making them here in the U.S. were manufactured by Hammerli. At least that is the name on my .38-.357 beauty. It is the conventional 4 click Colt style. Shoots alot better than I can.

That's it!! that's the gun. I knew it had something to do with Sig or Sauer or something :confused:

Anyway I thought it was a decently priced single action. The one I saw looked pretty used and a little loose. I imagine a gunsmith could probably tighten it up.
Can you tell me if the gun is well made/shoots well? How long ago were they made?

I know I probably get pretty annoying with my questions,:banghead: but I keep running across these guns that are "different" :what: ie (not S&W or Ruger)

Though IMO it resembles a Ruger Vaquero.
 
The above link didn’t work for when I tried, but these revolvers are in the lower end of the price range. It’d be interesting to have one I guess, different than the run of the mill revolvers that are all around…
 
Sorry about the link, I screwed it up *suprise* Here it is. You're right about being on the lower end, which is why I didn't end up paying $300 for one.

Hawes, an importer of handguns most of which were manufactured in Europe, imported the Western Marshall. The "Marshall" series had about a half dozen different variations of the revolver. They were made by Sauer in the Western Single-Action style. They borrowed the design from the Colt Single-Action Army.

The Western Marshall was made in .357, .44mag, .45 Colt, 9mm, .45ACP, .44-40, .22LR, and .22mag. with fixed sights and in blue finish.

The Western Marshall in "good" condition would be worth about $125 and up to $175 if in excellent condition.

I had one back in the mid 70's; certainly not to be confused with a Colt, but not a bad Single Action revolver for someone on a very limited budget in those days.

I hear ya. I think the gun looked cool, and it is something different,but I just don't think it's worth $300. Not when I can get a Ruger Black Hawk (same caliber) for only $120 more.

I have a Single Six SS with 6" barrel and a New Model Blackhawk Bisley 45Colt. I really like the Ruger Single Actions and I'm torn between getting the Blackhawk 45Colt/45ACP Or getting a .44 Magnum, because I don't have one yet. Between the Sauer & Sohn and the Virginia Dragoon, I'm thinking the Dragoon. it's only $75 more than the Sauer and it's stainless. Unless I decide on the 45. I can afford to buy one gun a month, so I have to choose wisely.

Thanks for the feedback though.
