Description:
“It’s known as the strongest .357 Magnum revolver in the world. It enjoys a legendary reputation for its use at the hands of French’s elite counter-terrorism unit. It’s unbelievably hard to get in America. It’s insanely expensive. It’s the Manurhin MR73 revolver.
The French wanted a revolver for their counter-terror unit, GIGN. They weren’t satisfied with the American revolvers of the era. They contracted the firm Manurhin to produce the MR73, which held up to some legendarily rigorous testing. It fired over 100,000 rounds through a single gun without a single dimensional change in the revolver.
While domestic manufacturers use cost saving measures like metal injection molding to make small parts, all of the small parts in the Manurhin MR73 are forged from steel. On the labor front, that also means that the guns require hand assembly. There are basically three guys in a factory in France that build every Manurhin MR73 that goes out the door. Unlike in America, most of Europe considers gunsmithing a skilled trade. The gunsmiths at Chapuis (the French company that makes the MR73) are some of the best in the world.”
