Bought one of these last summer, now I need another, looking for a .31 cal. remington revolver, must have a steel frame. Must be in good shooting condition.

stuffy25thia,
I think the repro's in this revolver all have brass frames. I have seen some that were plated with various finishes to hide the the fact that they have brass frames. This could have change in the past few years, so this statement could be incorrect now.
The original .31 Remington revolvers were never made with a brass frame.

Found what I was looking for, a Uberti .31 Remington. They make one with a steel receiver. Bought one today from a member on the N-SSA message board. Thanks to all that helped.
