Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The JP Sauer & Sohn Herter’s Single Six Revolver chambered in .401 Powermag was produced in the 1960s as a fascinating firearm that combines historical craftsmanship with the influence of iconic revolvers from the era. The design of this revolver was heavily inspired by the well-known Ruger and Colt single-action revolvers, both of which were popular during the mid-20th century. In fact, Herter’s revolvers closely mirrored these designs, incorporating many of the same features, such as a solid steel frame, a classic single-action mechanism, and a 6-shot cylinder. However, the Herter’s revolver was marketed as a more affordable alternative to the pricier Ruger and Colt models, offering similar performance at a lower cost. This made it an attractive option for those who desired the reliability and ruggedness of a single-action revolver but could not justify the higher price tags associated with Ruger or Colt firearms. Chambered in the rare .401 Power Mag, the revolver still delivered impressive stopping power and accuracy, with the potent cartridge offering a balance between the .357 Magnum and the .44 Magnum in terms of both velocity and energy.

The revolver's affordable price point, coupled with its well-built steel frame, ergonomic grip, and powerful .401 round, made it a popular choice for collectors and shooters seeking a solid, budget-friendly revolver that still packed a punch. Despite its relatively low production numbers compared to Ruger and Colt, Herter’s revolvers remain a cherished piece among enthusiasts and remain sought after in today's market due to their unique history and reliable performance.
