A bunch of years ago, I had a LeMat cavalry model. I shot it a few times & found it was fun to shoot 9 rounds from the cylinder & 1 shot load from the arbor/barrel. I ended up selling it (for more than I paid) because I wanted something else and the LeMat was just gathering dust. Sometime after I sold the LeMat, I became a "Collector", of mostly NIB replica revolvers, hanging on to whatever I bought regardless of whether tey'd ever be 'used'.
I've been trying to replace that LeMat for a few years now. Only problem is, the price of even a used LeMat has skyrocketed. You can't find one on GunBroker for less than a $900 starting bid and most are over $1000. That is till today. I managed to snag one for $606. Ought to be here next week. Will be adding it to my Confederate Replicas photo and giving it some range time.
