Sorry for the drift OP, but I have to ask Mannlicher about his 45. A plated 25?, a 625 with pinned barrel? A 5" barrel? WTH? Spare cyl. from a later model as I see the longer cyl. latch slots, & that's about all I recognize.

Was going to tell OP about my my mountain gun that has been cut for ACP moon clips & still can shoot 45 Colt, but this is another approach.


it's an elderly 25-5 with 6 inch barrel. A number of years ago, 20+ anyway, I had my gunsmith do some work on it. Made it a round butt. Tritium night sights. Made a conversion cylinder to take the .45 ACP cartridge and moon clips. All new internals, and did a hard chrome plate job over the original blue. Many rounds fired, not a mark on it. It's quite accurate. I used to win pin shoots with it using the ACP cylinder.
