Countless small and micro businesses in Italy, Spain, and Belgium produced more or less accurate reproductions of the weapons from the American pioneer era, including the 1851 Navy. Many of these businesses soon went out of business or were displaced or swallowed by larger companies. Today, companies like Armi San Marco, Pietta, and Uberti in Italy, as well as Armi San Paolo in Spain, still manufacture the 1851. Among them, the Italian company Uberti (which belongs to the Beretta Group) holds the top position among replica manufacturers in terms of detail accuracy, workmanship, and material quality.The 1851 Navy - like all other Colt models - was so popular that many companies did not simply wait for the expiration of the Colt patent in 1857, but instead copied Colt's products more or less accurately. Sam Colt himself began the fight against these “counterfeits,” as he called them, as early as the end of 1850. On a poster, Colt had the cylinder engravings of the Dragoon, Pocket, and Navy models printed to show customers what to look for to ensure they were getting a real Colt and not a copy.
