I am sure many people were amused with this at the time, even if S & W may not have been amused with their amusement.
I'd have just ordered a "New Century" in .44 Russian, if it was me, back then, just to savor the amusement, and because I really like .44 Russian...
I am sure the boys in the assembly room would have agreed..!
True it was the same performance, but as chronos were in rather short supply in 1907, probably not many folks had a clue.
