Description:

7 shot 22 caliber revolver with a silver plated brass frame and blue iron parts. Cylinder acts as barrel. Top left side of top strap marked "MY FRIEND PAT'D DEC 26, 1865". The frame is engraved with a leaf and scroll design and is formed with a finger hole so the pistol can be used as a set of brass knuckles. The cylinder pin is a replacement.

Rating Definition:

Good overall. The frame has a pleasant aged patina. The iron parts have a silver patina with light pitting on the cylinder, trigger and safety. The wing nut securing the cylinder has been replaced with a screw. Markings and engraving remain clear. The safety is not working.
