They were probably going for the shortest case length possible, considering they already had to lengthen the receiver from the originals, which used caseless ammunition, with the powder contained inside the bullet.
I would totally go for this, but I am assuming the price will be somewhere below “Spaceship Toilet”, but well above “holy crap, why don’t you just stab me in the eye with a rusty spoon”.
Still…. Might just start saving Pennies…

Neat piece of firearms history resurrected. I never thought a repro Volcanic pistol would happen.
Still hoping for Uberti to make a Rogers and Spencer percussion revolver. At one point they were made by an Italian company in the 80s or 90s but don't believe it was Uberti.
