Alas the firing pin has broken on my 73. I and my gunsmith tired everybody we could think of here in the United States and even a couple supply houses in Canada. Nothing.I've tried to contact the facotry in France and got no response. Same for the importer of MR revolvers in Australia. Oh well. So I now have a very nice wall hanger. Actually it has been moved to Training Aid status. I now have a revolver that I can dry fire to my heart's content and practice loading and unloading all day long. It's an expensive training aid, but life goes on.

I have since purchased a very nice pre - World War II Smith & Wesson Heavy Duty revolver (later named the Model 20) with a five inch barrel. Considering that it was manufactured in 1937 it's in amazing condition. So I'm happy.

Like I said life goes on.
