REPLICA PERCUSSION REVOLVER COLLECTORS BLOG
The Replica Percussion Revolver Collectors Blog is a collection of articles that provides historical information on the replica manufacturing industry, the importers who imported or currently import replica revolvers into the United States, the replica revolvers themselves and other valuable historical information. Much of this information is from the research of Dr. Jim Davis on the history of reproduction revolvers. His notes have been compiled into writings for the replica revolver collectors to aid in researching their revolver collections.
