I'm in the process of getting a client's house ready to sell. As I was cleaning closets today I ran into something I hadn't seen before. It's a pin fire revolver.
Near as I can tell, it's a Safety American model 1879. Probably a 7mm. 3" octagon barrel. Double action and cycles but even if I could find ammunition I'd be hard pressed to fire it as it doesn't exactly lock up nice and tight. It's probably no more than a wall hanger but it was a nifty find.
