Do you all have plans to do the Smith & Wesson model 1?

As great as that game is they always make the most clunky but cool guns top tier in the game that doesn’t translate well to real world. This is a good example.

I have one of the 12 gauge replicas made by "Coyote Cap" (real name Martin Ahlman, long since deceased) circa 2005. (I got mine in 2007) While his web site was up, it was an interesting story of him visiting the Chinese factory every month or so to inspect, make changes, and so forth. He saw a lot of old Soviet machine tools being used. He rejected a lot of the receiver casting for porosity issues -- and noticed the same receivers a few years later when other companies began producing 1887 clones from China as well. I think Norinco and Chiappa were the first after Cap. I think Cap's 1887 had a slight redesign to allow "load two": you can push two round in at the same time, one ends up at the bottom, the other in-line with the chamber ... you can them close the chamber, fire, work the action and fire again. Useful when firing a long strong of shots (over 6) in cowboy action matches.

I wish I’d known you were looking for a Winchester 1901 I have one that’d I’d be eager to donate to the show…

1:06:34 you're talking about mae shooting the 1887 with birdshot vs buck but the clips show firing the spencer. Also, Cimarron makes a reproduction of the later style 1887 12ga, in 20" or 26" barrel length. Apart from the cheap bluing and barrel length, it's probably one of the least expensive faithful Winchester/Browning reproductions out there. msrp is around $650.

Possible error at 1:05:47 and 1:06:06, Talking about the 1887 but showing clips of the Spencer firing instead.

Aha! Supposedly, JMB's least favorite of his designs. Looking forward to this: all of us old enough to have seen T2 in the theatres on initial release understand! 😄
