From an email by Cimarron:
Last year we introduced the ’62 Pocket Navy Conversion. It was to be available in .380ACP with a 3” barrel. After months of waiting, the ATF informed us that we needed to work on the safety mechanism. We quickly responded by working with Uberti to change the safety, and resubmitted the gun for approval. Again, months of waiting… waiting until the ATF responded that the 3” barrel made the gun too light! OK!!! So now we have changed the barrel from 3” to 6” and are now on track to release this highly anticipated revolver! Cimarron's '62 Pocket Navy Conversion authentically reproduces those early, coat pocket-sized cartridge conversion revolvers, produced by the Colt factory from around 1873-1880. Available as a 6-inch round-barreled, ejectorless model, this 21st century fistful of pistol is chambered for the feisty .380ACP cartridge! This handy little, 5-shot revolver utilizes the Uberti patented firing pin safety so we can load all 5 chambers and sports a rich, historically accurate blued finish, with a color case hardened frame, brass trigger guard and back strap, and an attractive, one-piece varnished, walnut stock. Due to the 6 inch barrel we now kiddingly refer to this little gem as the ‘Pocket Buntline’.
