I think all the P" models were made by Uberti factory in the mountains of Gardonne, Italy, the "Valley of the Guns," Cimarron Product Information should be able to answer this accurately at Cimarron Firearms Co. Inc. - (830) 997-9090.

Randy I. · Answer

They are made by Pietta but I don't know if they are cast or forged I suggest calling Cimarron Firearms Co. Inc. - (830) 997-9090 and asking. Good Quality cast guns will last as long as a forged gun. My STI Trojan is a cast 1911
