The RG 10 In A Nutshell.
|
A question was posted asking what specifically about the German RG .22 revolvers made them so bad. In all fairness, Röhm made a few different .22 revolvers and they were vastly different in quality. However, most folks have seen the RG10, a small double action gun. These are the worst of the worst for the following reasons. The frames were made of a very weak metal alloy that tended to fracture. The frames were not screwed or pinned together, they were pressed together like a toy cap gun. The pins holding the internal parts would wallow out the holes they were inserted into causing the mechanism to rattle around and get out of time. With the gun out of time, it either would not rotate the cylinder, or even worse, lock it up with the chamber not in alignment with the barrel. Then, when you fired, shards of hot lead now sprayed out of either side of the cylinder gap. Repeated firing ( say 10 or so cylinders full), with repeated misaligned bullets battering the rear of the barrel could cause the barrel to loosen and fall off.Hopefully the above reasons have given you an idea of why the RG 10, and all of its clones, are often named “The Worst Guns Ever Made”. Röhm also turned out a single action model in .22lr that was a semi-clone of the Colt SAA (think cowboy gun) that was fairly well made of much better steel with a respectable amount of quality control. That is a different gun altogether. They are keepers. So... what do you think? Please leave me a comment. MingoFrank is a wiz veteran at Gun Values Board. |
