Cased British Proofed Double Action Revolver

No maker markings with two British proofs on the upper left barrel flat and on the cylinder between the chambers. The number "380" is stamped on the rear of the cylinder. An ejector rod is mounted on the right sight. Fitted two-piece checkered grips and a lanyard ring stud on the butt. Complete with a partitioned wooden case lined in green felt. A cleaning rod is included.

ConditionVery fine. The revolver retains 80% bright original blue finish thinning to a brown with a smooth brown-gray patina on the trigger guard and grip straps. The grips are also very fine with a few minor handling marks. Overall the checkering remains crisp. Mechanically excellent. The case is fine with a repair on the lid, some minor handling marks, and some minor wear to the lining.
