Those are some fine pistols there. Looks like a lot of folks favor the rolling block But the camp perry definitely caught my eye. What year is it? All three look exceptional by the way

I don't remember ever seeing one of those rolling blocks in .22 - I've certainly never shot one. A local buddy has one of the .50 Navy rolling block pistols (Model 1870?), which I have shot. Feels "good in the hand" and would appear to be fairly accurate, but boy-oh-boy does it have a healthy recoil when fired with a case full of black powder!
Is this .22 the same-o as the .50 Navy's, but in small caliber? How long were they in production?

Gnoahhh..I’m not 100% sure of the answer to your question.
I recall while researching this one there was just over 700 of the 1901 models made. Of those I think less than half were chambered for .22LR

I dare ask would you ever think about selling/trading the camp perry?

Navy Arms had Pedersoli build a .22 version of the Rolling Block a number of years ago. I think it was also offered in .357 Magnum. I recall seeing several at gun shows and wish now that I'd picked one up.
