Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Freedom Arms is a Freedom, Wyoming-based firearm manufacturing company known for producing powerful single-action revolvers. The company was founded in 1978 by Wayne Baker and Dick Casull to produce the Mini revolver; then later, a revolver chambered in Casull's powerful .454 Casull chambering. This 5-shot revolver was the Model 83. Freedom Arms currently makes a single-shot pistol in addition to their revolvers. Freedom Arms' first offering was a 5-shot mini revolver in .22 LR known as "The Patriot." It was later offered in .22 Short and .22 WMR. A belt-buckle holster version was patented by Richard J. "Dick" Casull to accommodate the small revolver. A Boot Pistol model with a longer barrel was available. Freedom Arms also produced a 4-shot mini revolver. Production of mini-revolvers by Freedom Arms ceased in 1990. The mini-revolver design was sold to North American Arms. Co-founder Dick Casull had been experimenting with several prototype rounds since 1956. Casull felt he could offer a more powerful version of the .45 Colt and .44 Remington Magnum and built a number of 5-shot prototypes on Ruger Super Blackhawk frames. Freedom Arms was the first commercial producer of revolvers chambered in this caliber, the .454 Casull, in 1983. This model is still manufactured today as the Model 83.
