I had read threads on several different forums that said all Italian reproductions had straight rifling except the expensive shooter 1858s.
According to six Early and Modern Firearms (EMF) catalogs I just got, at least some of their black powder reproduction revolvers had 1 turn in 36 inch gain twist rifling.
They also brag that their reproductions' parts will interchange with first generation original percussion and SAA Colts.
These catalogs cover the time when Armi San Marco (ASM) was supplying EMF with their reproduction percussion and SAA revolvers ('60s - '80s.)
