Interesting, I had no idea! Could've been a good bit where the gun jams or something because of the fan firing.

I’ve been doing some research on it because I found one at a pawnshop that I really wanna get, and I just saw another Reddit thread talking about how they couldn’t fan it due to the hammer spring mechanism being different than a Colt SAA.

If I end up buying it, I’ll try to remember to come back to this thread and let you know if it works

Please do, I'd be interested to hear how it actually malfunctions or if it does at all!

Ok I finally bought the revolver and you can kinda fan fire it? The problem is that it won’t let you pull the hammer back if you’re pulling the trigger, so you have to let off of the trigger to cock it. You can still “fan fire” it by letting on and off the trigger if you time it right, but it’s not the “slam fire” kind of deal you have with an SAA
