Description:

This unique pinfire revolver features superposed barrels and a 20 round cylinder with 10 chambers around the outer edge and 10 chambers around the inside. The revolver features an elongated hammer with a spur near the bottom, narrow pinched front and notch rear sights, folding trigger, hinged loading gate, two piece smooth walnut grips and a lanyard ring mounted on the butt cap. With the exception of an unreadable marking/number on the left side of the barrel lug, there are no visible markings or proofs on the revolver.

Rating Definition:

Very good as period replated with 95% frosted nickel finish remaining with scattered minor flaking, scattered blistering and some minor pitting under the finish. The grips are also good with the screw protruding on the right side, and some minor wear, dings and dents. The barrel is a bit loose and the screw that secures it to the frame is stripped. The action is out of time, otherwise it functions.
