I just got this old manual shot shell puller. It's stamped COLT. RIUN. MANIAGO Anyone have any idea how old it might be or any other info about it?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry no info on this one, but thats a very nice piece you got there. What steel is the blade made of?

Thanks, Razor. The blade's been cleaned some, but you can still see pitting and some discoloration. Looks like carbon steel.

I believe the Colt stamp is mentioned in Switchblades of Italy...
I am to lazy to look it up now

Colt = Coltellerie, I believe.

This claims that Coltellerie Riun owned the name Coracama
