Title: Armscor Alpha revolvers
Post by: pawn on January 19, 2024, 10:55:54 PM

Did armscor/RIA buy tooling equipment for BRNO Alpha project revolvers that were coming in through Czechpoint a few years ago?

I don't believe so. All they did was re-brand the existing Alpha Proj. products. Fun guns. Not S&W, Colt or Ruger but, in my opinion, better than Taurus or Charter. This 9mm is an absolute hoot to shoot. Not hard to work on either.

Thank you.  Yes, not high end or bottom level but fun shooter for $ spent.  Classic firearms has an assortment for sale and wondered why no longer via Czechpoint.

That's a good looking revolver.  Reminds me of a S&W L frame.

I just looked at CF's prices. That's insane! I paid $289 for that one a few years ago. I'd rather pick up a good used Smith for that kind of money. In fact, I did that the other day. Got this mdl. 10, no-dash 2" for way less than they want for the Alphas.

Yeah, not the prices I was expecting either.
