What is it ?

Belgian proofed, root style hammer, LeMat style rammer. No other markings except a serial number of 1986. Reminiscent of an Adams, Tranter, Beaumnont & others.

My guess is Italian (early Glisenti?) or French. 10.5mm (around .42 caliber)?

There should be proofmarks around the receiver that would tell alot about the country of origin.

The 'engraving' look second-rate, so my guess would be a less top-level company.

I believe it is Belgian Comblain patent revolver, produced in both double and single action during the 1850-60s. Various calibers.

Looks like we got a winner. I knew someone would know.

 

Thanks Bad Hand
