Michael B. Suchka of Valley Engraving, Inc. and Thunder Valley Machine Co. has produced a number of high quality small scale and full sized replicas of Hotchkiss and Gatling crank guns. The top of the receiver is marked "HOTCHKISS REVOLVING CANNON/anchor". The left side receiver is marked MFD. BY MICHAEL SUCHKA/CLARINGTON, OHIO U.S.A./SN. 12797 CAL. 44 REM. MAG./MODEL 1897". The breech is marked with "HOTCHKISS REVOLVING CANNON/ANCHOR/1897-1997/NO. 3 OF 21". Includes a wooden display case with removable glass top, tools for maintenance of the gun, book on Hotchkiss guns, and dummy "chamber proving" rounds.

Excellent overall, retaining 95% plus original blue on the barrels with minor scratching to the brass receiver and base as well as some areas of very light patina. The display case is very fine with minor wear. Mechanically excellent. This could be a lot of fun to shoot!
