Rohm RG-14

Small Arms And Sidearms

The Rohm RG-14 is a double-action, six-shot revolver chambered in .22, formerly manufactured and sold by Rohm Gesellschaft of Sontheim/Brenz, Germany. It is notable as the model of firearm John Hinckley Jr. used to shoot Ronald Reagan on March 30, 1981; the guns were made in Germany until 1968, when the Gun Control Act of 1968 barred their import into the United States, after which production moved to a Rohm factory in Miami.
