Nicely made replica, quite realistic, I would like to see a all nickel revolver instead of the two tone one and as other reviewers have said a five shot cylinder with chambers and barrel having the same size bore too.
My favourite Denix replica. Metal polish will make it shine like a nickel plated pistol, a small notch in the nose of the hammer for a authentic back sight, a small brass shotgun bead sight at the muzzle and a little screw in the bottom of the grip frame make this realistic replica even more like the real thing. Just take a look at a real one, these mods are easy. I would love to see Denix make this model with a 4" barrel and 5 shot cylinder.
Comparatively few Colt 1849 pocket models were made with 6 shot cylinders, of the 4000 3" Wells Fargo models I have never heard of any being made with a 6 shot cylinder.
However this Denix model is realistic and I'll up grade to 5*.
Later versions of the pocket model were 6 shot so the replica is authentic.
I had a real .31 pocket Colt and love your replica, however my real one was a five shot and your replica is a six shot, I wish the replica had a five shot cylinder, for authenticity.
Nice replica, I recommend it to collectors.
