I know some of you are interested in such things. There are several from each manufacturer available right now on Gunbroker. Bring your trust fund. I would love to snag the .22LR/.22 WMR Korth, but can't justify spending that much for it.

The first indication a bad guy should have that I'm dangerous is when his
disembodied soul is looking down at his own corpse wondering what happened.
Mmm - Korth and Manurhin - I'd slap-fight a naked, Spartan helmet wearing, Nyeti - if the prize was a Korth and a 3" MR-73. If the prize was one or the other, Darryl will have to put on some boxers, first.
My guns, mostly. The 4" .22 LR & .22 Magnum Combat revolver is very rare, with maybe fewer than a dozen in existence. I have some earlier, cosmetically challenged but mechanically sound rimfire Korth revolvers that can be seen here. I haven’t decided whether to sell them or have them restored by Korth.Originally Posted by LtDave

Very nice bunch of guns. You guys should definitely check them out.

I snagged one of the 3" Manhurin MR73's a couple months ago. It came with rubber grips that I replaced with Nils. The grips with the 3" revolver look a little funny but it's a pleasure to shoot. After I got it I took it apart a cleaned things as the trigger pull was horrible.
Nill makes open back grips that balance better. I described the MR73 trigger adjustment here.I snagged one of the 3" Manhurin MR73's a couple months ago.

Any thread with the names "Korth" and "Manurhin" in the title is a good thread.
I really want an MR 73... 3" or 4" I don't care.
Chapuis-made revolvers of either barrel length can be ordered from Kebco, LLC. THowever, the 3" model handles much better in the regrettably discontinued fixed sight configuration. I have a couple of these listed on Gunbroker.
