Can you get these in Aus, I want one!

Do they carry the full Uberti stock here?

Pretty sure you can. One of the blokes in our club has one in 38-55 and loads BP in it.
There's still a few of Wile. E Coyote's ideas that I haven't tried yet.

Yep available from Beretta.

I have a Berretta Gold Rush version in 357 which is a super deluxe Uberti and its wood is just outstanding.

That looks great.

What's the mottled finish? Like patchy bluing?

Color_case_hardening is that mottled thingy.....people pay money for that finish (I would!)

The Taurus Tunderbolt has been available around these parts for yonks, a lot cheaper than the Kiappa, and in old skool 45 Longcolt...!!
Only draw back is the shorter hold radius, not as stable, but still , lots of pumpie action!

Yeah mate I'm liking it.

Wasn't knocking it with the 'patchy bluing' description. That was just the only words that came to mind.

Like it! :D

Everything about that looks good.

The timber especially.

This is the finish on mine although the lack of lighting still doesn't do it justice.

The action is case hardened in a blueish black.

The wood at both ends is outstanding.

We have freaking rain at the moment so when we get some sunshine I'll take a clear pic and also of the whole gun.

PS: Just took a pic outside between showers with no flash but its still too overcast but the basic blue/black is still visible.

I do like the idea of a pump action in pistol cartridges would be good to see the 7600 do the same with 9mm through to 454
