Maybe that should be in a thread titled Caleb documents his experiences with using a Manurin? I can't see a reason that Zeleny shouldn't comment on the technical aspects of these things in a Revolver sub-forum. HOWEVER, most of the posts from many people seem more like a daycare toddler fight before nap time.

Ok after a brief staff huddle, we've decided to move this thread to General Discussion. Some level of friendly bullshitting seems ok in any thread. Otherwise we would lose the community feel of the forum and the Mods would have to act like nazis. But for technical discussions, there's a line, and I hope everyone can see that we've crossed it.
Carry on...

Well, since it is in General Discussion I can post this directed at @jetfire:
Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders - the most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia" - but only slightly less well-known is this:
Next time @jetfire do a thread in the competition technical forum on shooting aspects and when you do the post-match inspection on the gun.
Well now that this in GD, there’s nothing in the Manurhin’s design that couldn’t be done more efficiently by using modern parts sourcing and manufacturing methods, based on my 15+ years of actual consulting with product development in the gun industry.
I love it because it’s still made like it’s 1973, but it’s 2021 and the design isn’t particularly special from an engineering standpoint. It could be reproduced more efficiently using modern methods and parts.
