MR73 RANGE
No other revolver action compares with the MANURHIN MR73. All experts agree that this is an exceptionally smooth, light action, created in close consultation with international-level target shooters by one of Europe's foremost defence and armaments company. The MANURHIN MR73 is standard issue with France's
elite police and military Special Weapons and Tactics teams (R.A.I.D., G.I.G.N. and
comparable units). Quite a few European and world champions have used MR73 revolvers
to take many national and world records. MANURHIN MR73 FRAMES MANURHIN MR73 CYLINDERS are machined from specially formulated, ordnance-certified alloyed steel stock procured from Aubert & Duval, an internationally-recognised specialist manufacturer of special steels. Final chamber finish is conducted by a specific impact process that ensures glass-smooth chamber walls with a very high hardness for extreme accuracy and long service life. 9MM Luger cylinders are available separately to take advantage of low-cost, widely available ammunition aside from the standard .357 Mad/.38 Special chambering. The MR73 action cannot be operated once the cylinder has been swung out. MANURHIN MR73 BARRELS are produced using the cold-hammering technique from ordnance-certified alloyed steel blanks also procured from Aubert & Duval. The cold hammer-forging process increases the density of the steel fibers by displacing them. This greatly increases the useful life of the barrel, compared to conventional barrel cutting techniques that disrupt the molecular structure of steel and creates weak points. Manurhin barrels have an extremely long accuracy life and provide near-perfect precision. MANURHIN MR73 FITTING & ADJUSTING as well as final polishing and finishing are entirely done by hand. Our master armorers have a long experience in the precision work involved. Gun fanciers and connoisseurs will immediately perceive the quality of a MANURHIN MR73 revolver - an accurate, lightweight, perfectly balanced, fast handling and fast firing revolver with a glass-smooth fully adjustable action. Sport versions come with fully adjustable, factory set sights.
MANURHIN MR73 REVOLVERS will not burst or show any bulging or deformation even with ammunition developing double the CIP standard maximum allowable pressure of the .357 Magnum cartridge (2x3,200 bar is 6,400 bar or 92,8000 psi). One could shoot two commercial .357 Magnum cartridges in the same chamber at the same time and get away with it.
