Colombia's Cowboy Revolvers: Cassidy, Marshall, and Scorpio (Ad-free)

The best firearms reference books: https://www.headstamppublishing.com Indumil in Colombia was originally founded as a state workshop to repair military small arms. Its first complete production gun was the Cassidy, a licensed copy of Llama's copy of the Smith & Wesson Model 10. This was developed by Llama for the .357 Magnum cartridge and retains that frame length, but Indumil only makes it in .38 Special because of legal precedents in the country. It is offered in three models, the regular Cassidy seen here, the larger Marshall (full sight rib and underdog, in 4" or 5" barrel length) and the compact Scorpio (round butt with a 2" barrel). Thanks to Javier Traba Pistolas for giving me access to these examples to film for you!

So, was Llama’s production the same as S&W, with the transfer bar, or did they change the design to the shifting hammer position?

copy of WHAT ELSE! hardly anything wrong about a k frame, is there.

Interesting that they kept the old S&W 5 screw frame 65 plus years after S&W discontinued it. Also, a K-frame is a K-frame-- same length for .357 or .38. the cylinder is lengthened and the forcing cone end of the barrel is commensurately shortened. Think S&W M-10 and S&W M-13.

Does Ian have a video on Llama’s copies of the Model 10?
