Description:

This novel revolver, based on patents by Henry Schlund, shows evidence of Tranter's influence by way of his double trigger revolver with several novel deviations: the second trigger is fully enclosed in the trigger guard and the mechanism integrates a spring loaded latch assembly allowing the revolver to be cocked in a single-action style without continued finger pressure and manually decocked if needed. Additionally, the design uses a top break mechanism with thumb-operated latch, allowing the weapon to be cleared for reloading with a single hand. George Kynoch and his associate and works manager Henry Schlund leased the arms factory of William Tranter in 1885 following the latter's retirement. This would operate as the Kynoch Gun Factory until 1889 when it was reorganized as the Aston Arms Company Ltd. Blade and notch sights, with "KYNOCH GUN FACTORY ASTON" on top of the barrel and "PATENT MODEL" on the top strap. Checkered upper trigger and smooth lower trigger with walnut grips.

Rating Definition:

Fine, retains 75% original blue finish, with numerous scratches and edge wear showing smooth brown and gray patina on the balance. The grip is very good with scattered mild dings and chips. Mechanically fine.
