In reference to that photo you posted... That is one of the most interesting revolvers I have seen... do you happen to know what it is? I really like the idea of the higher mass above the barrel line. I’m thinking I’d really like to shoot one of these. Is it some sort of custom target rig?

Ok, in the case anyone else is interested... that photo is a Mateba Model 6 autorevolver... yes, autorevolver. Cool isn’t the word this this. It’s an Italian design that was only produced for about 8 years ending in 2005. I’ve seen some VERY old cache ads with used pricing around 1700 bucks for the .357 version although some were also chambered for 44mag and 454 Casull. I would assume this is a 3000 dollar+ firearm today and it just went on my gotta have list. I’m not much of a wheel gun type, but I absolutely love oddities like this.
