before today ive never seen or heard about an uberti made open top navy
revolver in .38 spec caliber , i believe they called it converted model 1871.
held it in my hands when i was at the gunshop to pick up some reloadstuff .
must say its an impressive revolver , i believe it has a 7.5 inch barrel .
it had no real sights , just a notch on the hammer and a crude frontsight, but fit and finish to me seemed real good , looks like a well build , solid revolver to me.
looked at the pricetag and it surprised me , it dont cost a lot and was brandnew.
i am curious , has anyone on this forum any experience with these italian build
revolvers , are they any good or more a collector type of gun ?
like to hear from you , greetings from holland !
