    Who made Brocock/SP 52 & 54?

    I know Weirhauch make the Orion and specialist, Pietta the Texan and ME Sportwaffen the ME38's, but who made the original little five shot 52 & 54's?

    I've just got a ME38 Magnum (not in the UK) and noticed they also make a ME38 pocket, is this what the 52 was?

    I believe the original Mod 52 and 54 were also modified Arminius revolvers same as the Orion.

    They were definitely better quality than the ME38 series of guns.

    I think the Texan was also HW made not Pietta - the latter makes very good replicas of old Colt's etc.
    People who have been there focus on the fundamentals. People who sit at keyboards all day focus on the trivial and inane.

    I know

    Hi all i think you will find it was Schmitt who made the 52 54 and python 63 and western 66 thats why they were good quality. Weihrauch made the Orions 3 4 6 and the Texan.
    Hope that helps

    I was aware of that! They're still legal everywhere else in the world though.
