Were 375 Supermags made anywhere besides Monson? All the ones I've ever seen are Monson guns, I've never seen a Palmer or Norwich. Anybody have one and care to share a pic?
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

If a man designed it, and a man built it, then a man can fix it.

I think technically, according to Mike Sheehan, all large frames were made at Palmer. I think prior to sometime in 1991 they were rollmarked Monson. I have a 45lc, and a 15-2 Gold Series that are marked Monson but most were marked Palmer and what I have read indicates they were a Palmer product. I think they were made before the bankruptcy that changed the name to Wesson Firearms. I would suspect that production of 375 's ended before that. This is all supposition on my part. I think a bigger mystery is why there are no stainless 375's.

The .375 SuperMags were made in Palmer as all large frame guns were originally and stamped Monson. I do recall making .375 SuperMags in Palmer as Wesson Firearms as well, but it would only be a handful. There must be a stainless .375 out there somewhere I would think Ole Dog but you might be on to something there. I am not 100% on that one.
Best regards
