Kingkong,


I am jealous! That's a gorgeous looking revolver and one of the best production revolvers that money can buy. IMO.

Congratulations.

congratulations on your acquisition my feathered friend, it's a beaut!

did you fire it yet though?

mind if I ask what the damages were?

[kingkong5465]

Thank you Vikram. I always dreamt of this gun and I am very happy about this. I had to sale my .32 S&W magnum. But I am not finding a high quality shoulder holster for. Any thing you can gude in this?
yes supershaji, I have fired all the ammo I had in a single day. The gun is just two days old with me.

[kingkong5465]

The only damage I found is that as I told you, supershaji, I have lost all my ammo in the target. Anyway I m not a good shot.

[supershaji]

I can imagine. a beauty like this deserves all your ammo being spent on.

well, care to share how much you spent on this lovely revolver?

Thanks Bowman, it sweeter if you shoot

[surajshuresh]

Hi kingkong manurhin revolvers are well made why is there not much demand for them what you have is a great find in india if there is demand for ppk which the post war ones are made by manurhin only surprising there is less demand for the revolers... any reasons???

That's a beauty and, as Vikram rightly said, one of the best production revolvers ever made. Love the trigger shoe.

I had an MR73 .357 MAG and it was easily the best built and most accurate revolver I owned - better than my Colt Python and better than my S&W M27. The original price is hefty - to put it mildly - but considerably less than the Korth which is supposed to be the best revolver built but I fail to see how it could be better than the MR73.
The MR73 is built by Matra Manurhin but has been marketed via Chapuis for some years now.
The build specification and quality of steel used in the MR73 is unmatched by any other revolver. MR73s have been tested to over 150,000 shots with no failures and no departure from the original tolerances.
Congratulations on the acquisition of your MR73 - you have made a superb purchase.
