Manurhin MR 73
The Manurhin MR 73 is a French Trigger (firearms)#Double-action/single-action, double-action/single-action revolver chambered in .357 Magnum and .38 Special.

In response French police agencies gradually accepted the idea of arming their personnel, traditionally equipped with blowback pistols chambered in .32 ACP, with locked breech pistols and heavy-duty revolvers chambered in 9×19mm Parabellum and .357 Magnum. Introduced in 1972, the MR 73 was designed for police tactical unit use and is known for having formerly been the standard issue Sidearm (weapon), sidearm of the French National Gendarmerie, as well as for its offensive role and use by French police tactical unit ...
