I am a 357 magnum fan so I would buy one of these if they where priced about like any name name brand revolver of the same quality.
That's the impossible part. Especially for a small shop or startup. Baikal had the .357 MP412 concepts/first production batch made with polymer lower frame elements (and Russian build standards, no doubt) which may have made them cost-competitive. But our arms trading agreement with the Russians in the '90s put the Kibosh on that dream. Won't no one touch it now (even though all the Xbox guys pined embarassingly for them after the latest COD and MW games ).

I'm thinking my design, what with all its machined/fitted parts...~1000$ give or take, just to make the thing . Many times that for prototyping/testing/marketing/etc.--you see why it wouldn't fly
