Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

Manufactured around 1909-1912, the Union Automatic Revolver bears a strong mechanical resemblance to the Webley-Fosbury Automatic, to the point where the base principles are virtually identical: a top-break revolver frame is mounted in a spring-loaded housing and grip assembly, and on discharge the frame is driven backwards by recoil, revolving the cylinder and re-cocking the hammer. The main deviation is that the hammer is mounted to the housing on the Union and no manual safety is included. Fixed sights, with a repeating "23" on several components and the address on the right side of the housing. Fitted with a pair of U.F.A./American Eagle grips.

Rating Definition:

Fine, with 85% plus original nickel finish, showing some light scratches and handling marks overall. The takedown latch shows 95% plus niter blue finish, with traces of strong case color in the protected areas of the trigger. The grips are good, with some scuffs and flat spots. Mechanically needs adjustment as the hammer will not drop.
