Catalog Page: 75
Class: Antique
Description:

Manufactured from 1890 to 1898 with this example having a factory style scroll and punch dot engraving on the sides of the frame, barrel and top strap and on the chambers of the cylinder. No letter accompanies this revolver so we are unable to say for certain if it was done at the factory. Standard barrel rib marking with cylinder and barrel numbered to the gun. Fitted with pearl grips. Accompanied by an Iver Johnson leather flap holster.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. The revolver retains 80% original nickel finish. The trigger retains traces of original case colors with heavier amounts of original blue finish remaining on the trigger guard. The grips are excellent with a few minor handling marks. The engraving is crisp. Mechanically fine. The holster is good with missing toe plug and minor handling marks and flex wear.
