Belgian Made 7mm Pinfire Revolver
Item #: AA1312
This is a Belgian made 7mm pinfire revolver made circa mid 1800's. This beautiful little revolver measures 7 1/4" overall, with a 3 1/4" barrel. The entire gun is nickel plated, with exception of the wood grips. The octagonal barrel has a bore that is bright and shows good rifling. This one is almost identical to one I recently listed, with the exception being no engraving. This one is stamped on the cylinder and right side barrel flat just above the ejector rod. The barrel has a star over the letter T. The inner rim of the cylinder bears the definitive Liege proofmark, the letter E over LG over a star within an oval. This proofmark was used from February 1811 through July 1893. I believe the other stamp to be an inspector's proofmark. The loading gate is found on the right side of the frame and locks securely in the closed position. The mechanics of this pinfire work perfectly as a single or double action revolver. The grips are wood and are not checkered. There is only a small amount of wear at the bottoms of these tight fitting grips. The lanyard ring is missing on this one. There are untold photo's of young soldiers on both sides of the Civil War carrying these revolvers in their belts. This is a folding trigger pinfire that would look great in any pistol collection.
